It’s rare that the worlds of art and ice skating collide. But here’s a window into the world of skating unlike any we’ve seen before: American figure skater Sasha Cohen, 28, is the focus of a beautiful new film on Nowness, out Tuesday. In it, the skater (who has won gold at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships and silver at the Winter Olympics and the World Figure Skating Championships) reflects on the impact skating has had on her life. Cohen, who wears a Nina Ricci dress in the film, glides around a darkened rink—and walks on Columbia University’s campus, where she is a student. “A couple minutes on the ice will change the rest of your life,” she says. “Nothing will be the same after depending on how you perform.”

Bernard Arnault Pulls Belgian Citizenship Application: Bernard Arnault has withdrawn his controversial application for Belgian citizenship. Seeking a massive audience by granting French paper Le Monde and exclusive interview on the topic, the LVMH CEO (and Frances richest man) speaks about how he underestimated the amount of attention his attempted citizenship change would draw. He says that this latest decision is “a gesture of my attachment to France and my faith in its future.” Arnault admitted to recently transferring his LVMH shares to a Belgian Foundation, but noted that this will not relieve him of paying taxes to France. Overall, he stressed France’s negative outlook on the wealthy. “In Germany, the U.K., or the United States, one condemns poverty in order to fight it, while in France, we condemn wealth,” he said.
