Redefining Labels With Container Love

Love Has No Label is a multimedia series about those who dare to live on the periphery of social convention, people who inspire, people who love unconditionally and without labels. Produced by Studio Christian Ruess’ home-bred platform, Container Love, it is an ever-changing sociocultural experiment with one unified message: making love visible for everyone. In a series of films and editorials, Love Has No Label tells the personal stories of four very different individuals who first had to learn how to love themselves in order to love somebody else. In a way, this body of work is as close to a manifesto as it gets – it doesn’t matter where you came from, what you believe in, or who you love, every human being deserves to feel visible, equal and accepted.
