Christian Dior S.A. (French pronunciation: [kʁistjɑ̃ djɔːʁ]) (more commonly known as Dior) is a French company which owns the high-fashion apparels and accessories producer and retailer Christian Dior Couture, as well as holding 42% of LVMH Moët Hennessy • Louis Vuitton, the world's largest luxury goods firm. Both Dior and LVMH are controlled and chaired by businessman Bernard Arnault. The Dior label is the namesake of designer Christian Dior who launched the haute couture empire in 1946. Christian Dior Couture, a division of the whole House of Dior, designs and produces some of the world's most coveted haute couture, as well as luxury ready-to-wear fashion, menswear and accessories. Today, Dior operates about 160 boutiques worldwide with plans to open more in the coming years.
Competitors to the House of Dior include, among many, the fashion houses of Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Gucci, Versace, MaxMara and Prada.
The House of Dior was established on 16 December 1946, in "a private house" at 30 Avenue Montaigne Paris B. However, the current Dior corporation celebrates "1947" as the opening year. Dior was financially backed by wealthy businessman Marcel Boussac. The new couture house became a part of "a vertically integrated textile business" already operated by Boussac. Its capital was at FFr 6 million and workforce at 80 employees. The company was really a vanity project for Boussac and was a "majorly owned affiliate of Boussac Saint-Freres S.A. Nevertheless, Monsieur Dior was allowed a then-unusual great part in his namesake label (legal leadership, a non-controlling stake in the firm, and one-third of pretax profits) despite Boussac's reputation as a "control freak". Monsieur Dior's creativity also negotiated him a pleasant salary.

Plot: While cheating ministers seem to be newsworthy, film makers have purposely avoided nipping at the juiciest piece of gossip in the black church. Backsliders exposes what congregations whisper about secretly while praying it doesn't get aired publicly, the pastor's indiscretions. Backsliders pits a mega-church minister against his principles and the self-professed gold digger he can't refuse. This story charges headlong down a treacherous path when the wages of sin come due, the minister's moment of clarity arrives too late and the life he once knew won't stop tumbling out of control until a body drops. Backsliders, where unruly circumstances break loose from the lies that bound them and no one gets away unscathed.
Genres: Drama, Short,Teacher moves me from seat to seat, huh!
All I do is talk
Teacher, may I use the bathroom please?
Yes, it's an emergency!
Teacher makes me take my test first
I'll take your test
Trapped inside this hourglass
Thoughts of crass
I'll give you the answers you want to hear
But I won't conform
Unlike my mindless vacant peers
They're the norm
Exactly what do you want me to say?
Exactly what do you want from me?
Exactly what do you want me to be now?
Please classify me
Force me to succeed
Change identity
And watch me change
Finished, may I use the bathroom please?
Yes, still an emergency!
Come on, cut me some slack
Promise, I'll be right back
Just let me go this one last time
And I'll never ask again,
Just let me go this one last time
And I'll never ask again
Please!
