Dior owes a great deal of its success to him: John Galliano. He was head designer at Dior for 15 years and rocked the world of fashion with his extravagant designs. But the higher the rise, the harder the fall: In 2011, the designer's glitzy world came crashing down. Galliano, addicted to drugs and alcohol, caused outrage with his anti-Semitic statements. How did things get so bad? Director Kevin MacDonald dedicates his documentary to this question and interviews Galliano's closest friends, his family, famous personalities from the fashion world and even the controversial star designer himself. Following his documentary masterpiece WHITNEY, which brought him to the ZFF in 2018, MacDonald portrays yet another fascinating artist with GALLIANO.
