Stéphane Sednaoui got his start in fashion photography, although filmmaking was his first love. After directing a couple of videos for French rappers NTM (one of which, "Le Monde de Demain," is included here), he hit MTV pay dirt with the Red Hot Chili Peppers 1991 breakthrough, "Give It Away." There is no doubt that the striking clip, featuring the band members painted silver and dancing in the desert, was fundamental in launching the Chili Peppers as one of the 90s most successful bands. With that, only his fourth job, Sednaoui became the hottest director of the time. This collection, part of the ongoing Directors Label series, features 19 of his best works, including Björks "Big Time Sensuality" (which had her dancing around Manhattan on the back of a flatbed truck), U2s Moroccan-shot "Mysterious Ways," and Alanis Morissettes "Ironic." Bonus features include commentary from many of the bands and artists, short films, a gorgeous 56-page book with interviews and exclusive art, and more. Bill Pearis
