Doc Days of Summer: Presenting encores of the summer's best documentaries.
Dior is arguably the most influential fashion house in history, and for decades Christian Dior was the leading fashion designer in the world. Following his explosive films on Diana Vreeland and Valentino, director Frédéric Tcheng offers another masterful exploration of a towering fashion institution. In Dior and I, viewers enter the storied world that is the House of Dior with a privileged, behind-the-scenes look at the creation of Raf Simons’ highly anticipated first Haute Couture collection as the iconic brand’s new artistic director. From conception through to its ultimate exhibition, the process is shown to be a true labour of love by the stoic Simons and a dedicated, charming and often humorous team of collaborators. Beautifully melding the everyday, pressure-filled components of fashion with an elegant reverence for the history of Dior, Tcheng’s colourful homage to the seamstresses of the atelier is nothing short of magical.
In French, English, Italian and Flemish, with English subtitles.
