The definitive feature documentary about Audrey Hepburn: Hollywood star, fashion icon and humanitarian.
Audrey Hepburn won her first Academy Award at the age of 24, and went on to become one of the world's greatest cultural icons: a once-in-a-generation beauty, and legendary star of Hollywood's Golden Age, whose style continues to inspire. But who was the real Audrey Hepburn?
Malnourished as a child, abandoned by her father, and growing up under Nazi occupation in Holland, Hepburn faced a life-long battle with the traumas of her past, which thwarted her dreams of becoming a ballet dancer, and cast a shadow over her personal life. Yet she found inner peace, using her superstardom for good as a global ambassador for UNICEF, and bringing her life full circle: first a victim of war, then a source of relief to millions.
A hybrid of rare archive, cinematic dance sequences, and intimate interviews with those who knew her best, this film brings a truly extraordinary woman to life, who stands as testament to the power of love and forgiveness.
How do you describe Audrey Hepburn? She was beautiful, talented, compassionate, charming and graceful - but these words don't quite seem to fully capture her spirit. All the best fairy tales contain transformation, and Audrey's story is no exception.
This film is an intimate portrait of an enduring and global icon, celebrating a woman who lived her own version of a meaningful and fulfilling life.
Rated: PG
Consumer Advice: Mild themes and infrequent coarse language.
