The life and career of fashion designer Lee Alexander McQueen: from his start as a tailor, to launching and overseeing his eponymous line and his untimely death.
The film, named after the iconic designer, premiered at Tribeca's prestigious film festival. The numerous selections and awards at prestigious festivals around the world were recently added two nominations for the BAFTA Award, including the Best British Film category.
Alexander McQueen's rags‐to‐riches story is a modern‐day fairy tale, laced with the gothic. Mirroring the savage beauty, boldness and vivacity of his design, this documentary is an intimate revelation of McQueen's own world, both tortured and inspired, which celebrates a radical and mesmerizing genius of profound influence.
