Self - Artist
Esta película es ante todo un viaje. De Brooklyn a Abidjan, pasando por Mississippi, Puerto Rico y Haití. Un viaje sobre la búsqueda de la identidad del artista afroamericano contemporáneo más famoso y uno de los pintores más relevantes del siglo XX, Jean-Michel Basquiat. Sin embargo deviene un viaje paradójico, pues a pesar de sus raíces haitianas y puertorriqueñas, Basquiat apenas exploró el continente africano. Sin embargo, nunca dejó de soñar con ello, trascendiendo su “memoria cultural” para producir obras icónicas. Se dice demasiado poco: aunque el pintor se anticipó como ningún otro a la globalización del arte, sobre todo se enfrentó a una América plagada de racismo.

The world of fashion, between the end of the Sixties and the beginning of the Noughties, had a key character that embodied its spirit and told the tale: journalist Anna Piaggi, living witness of that contamination between art, society and culture that changed fashion and sanctioned its success on a global scale. The daughter of a manager for La Rinascente (Milan's iconic high-end shopping mall whose foundation goes back to 1865), Karl Lagerfeld's muse, "a poet with her clothes" in the words of Bill Cunningham, her life is retraced through interviews with designers (Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, Stephen Jones, Manolo Blahnik, and more) together with archival images from four decades of fashion history.
