This surprisingly moving documentary follows former Jil Sanders designer Raf Simons as he takes over as creative director at iconic French label Dior. From the moment he steps foot inside the hallowed Paris doors, the cameras – and the history – trail him so closely we see a visionary at his most creative, demanding and vulnerable.
Intelligently produced and often very funny, the film gets incredible access to the mysterious world of haute couture which, despite its high-falutin’ glamour, is a vault of hard-working and often eccentric craftspeople. Whether or not you care about fashion, it’s an absolute must-see.
