Whether you mean to or not, when you throw on a tee — be it a CBGB memento or a classic Hanes — you’re saying something. But what exactly? Filmmakers Dimitri Pailhe and Julien Potart offer up some answers in T-Shirt Stories, a new documentary exploring the unexpected cultural significance of what you thought was just the cotton covering your back. The movie is made even more colorful by its eclectic cast, with cameos by American Apparel founder Dov Charney, Pedro “Busy P” Winter, and Mark the Cobra Snake. A DVD of the film is available from Colette in Paris.
