Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld — two icons who shaped the history of fashion. Once friends, later rivals, their destinies collided and intertwined, defining over 70 years of international fashion history. But behind the glamour lies a forgotten story: a friendship shattered by love, ambition, and one man — Jacques de Bascher. Between glory, excess, and solitude, their lives reflect not only the story of fashion, but the spirit of an entire era.
Combining video and audio archives along with interviews, the film delves into a story of genius, rivalry, and the price of greatness.
