Synopsis
A raw and personal video diary, charts model Sara Ziff’s rise from
a new face to one that adorns billboards and magazines around the
world. Ziff and filmmaker, Ole Schell, co-direct the documentary,
lifting the veil on the glamorous world of high fashion modelling,
from photo shoots with celebrated photographers to runway shows in
New York, Milan, and Paris.
The film looks at the ever increasing demand for teenage models, the
pressure to stay thin, sexual harassment and drug use. This intimate
account features in-depth interviews with noted photographers and
designers, and showcases personal footage shot by the models
themselves, giving voice to those who are often seen, but rarely
heard.
With appearances by models Missy Rayder, Cameron Russell, Diana
Dondoe, and Caitriona Balfe, photographers Gilles Bensimon and Sam
Haskins, designers Nicole Miller, Hussein Chalayan, and others.
