The film follows one week in the life of Llewyn Davis, a folk singer struggling to achieve musical success while keeping his life in order."  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_Llewyn_Davis) 



The independent film was partly inspired by 60s American  folk artist Dave Van Ronk (1936-2002) who inspired and promoted many upcoming folk artists at the time such as Bob Dylan.

The promotional posters for the film were designed as a promotional poster may be for a musician, and were hand drawn to reflect the genre of music/the genre of the film. 

This is something I would like to do for the magazine advert to both reference my digipak and the folk genre of the track.
