Yves Saint Laurent - Teaser Trailer
Yves Saint Laurent is a 21-year-old aspiring fashion designer whose sketches have caught the eye of one of France's most revered fashion giants, Christian Dior. When Yves finds himself the successor of Dior's fashion house, he suddenly finds himself a major celebrity; a status which grows at the arrival of his first catwalk show. It's there he meets Pierre Bergé, with whom he falls in love and the pair quickly become business partners. However, life becomes more complicated when Yves finds himself fired, and his life spirals into a whirlwind of humiliation, media savagery, drugs and mental illness. Despite his problems, however, he still manages to impress the world with his first collection - a move which would change the world of haute couture forever.
'Yves Saint Laurent' is a biographical drama based on the colourful life of the world renowned designer of the same name. Based on the biography 'Letters to Yves' by Laurence Benaïm, the movie has been directed and co-written by Jalil Lespert ('Headwinds', '24 Bars') with previous screenplay collaborator Marie-Pierre Huster ('Amitiés sincères', 'Headwinds') and Jacques Fieschi ('Going Away', 'Nelly & Monsieur Arnaud'). 'Yves Saint Laurent' is set to be unveiled in the UK on March 21st 2014.
