Women were clearly at the core of legendary photographer Helmut Newton’s work. The stars of his iconic portraits and fashion editorials – from Catherine Deneuve to Grace Jones, Charlotte Rampling to Isabella Rossellini – finally give their own interpretation of the life and work of this controversial genius in this fascinating documentary from director Gero von Boehm. Provocative, unconventional, subversive, his depiction of women still sparks the question: were they subjects or objects?
