"The best fashion documentary of the decade" (The Hollywood Reporter) is a portrait of the elusive Belgian designer who has shunned interviews and photographs throughout a decades-long career that has taken him from Jean Paul Gaultier to Hermès to his own fashion house.

He reveals his drawings, notes, and personal items for the first time in this exclusive, intimate portrait. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. 90 min.
