McQueen

About the movie

Alexander McQueen, the working-class boy who grew up to be one of the worlds’ most famous fashion designers known for his unconventional design and spectacular runway shows. Described as a modern-day fairy tale, the documentary will portrait both sides of London-born McQueen’s life; the inspiring aspects but also the tormented side.
A portrait of a talented and hard-working man who sadly passed away at the age of 41 after taking his own life. Director Ian Bonhôte and producer Nick Taussig wish to bring him back and extend the audiences memory of him with this honest and personal homage.
“I know of no other contemporary designer to ignite such an immediate visceral response from an audience” – Director Ian Bonhôte
“His freedom of expression and ability to grab you by the throat emotionally” – Producer Nick Taussig
