Picture Me: A Model's Diary


Directors: Sara Ziff and Ole Schell

2009
NC16

Shot over a period of five years, Filmmaker Ole Schell and top model Sara Ziff's tell all documentary - records her rise from a fresh face to one that adorns billboards and magazines around the world.

In the process, Ole and Sara go behind the scenes and chronicle the glitzy world of high fashion modeling, from photo shoots with celebrated photographers to runway shows in New York, Milan, and Paris. This intimate account features in-depth interviews with noted photographers and designers, but also relies on footage shot by the models themselves, giving voice to those who are often seen, but rarely heard.

Featuring: Giles Bensimon, Nicole Miller, Missy Rayder, Lisa Cant, Tanya D, Karl Lagerfeld, and more.

"One of the best films about the world of modeling and an honest portrayal of an industry built on artifice"
