Madonna, the famous singer and actor, has now donned on the director’s hat with her new 30 minute short film named Filth and Wisdom. Madonna’s latest offering talks about the story of three friends looking for a brighter and bigger future. Madonna in an interview said that she was happy to be behind the camera and did not need to worry about make up or hair style or wardrobe. Madonna, who unveiled her film at the Berlin film festival, said that the movie is about two things in life: duality and the struggle due to the duality and hence she named the film as Filth and Wisdom.

The main character in the film is played by the New York Gypsy band “Gogol Bordello’s” lead singer Eugene Hutz. All the characters in this film leads a double life and as the director has been trying to figure out the people’s idea of sex all through her life, this film also threads on a similar path. The cast comprises of unknown faces and Madonna says that it is easy to work with people who are unknown and who are not so busy. The film has not gone well with the critics and they feel that it is better for Madonna to continue with her day job and that’s singing.
