Helmut Newton: The Bad and The Beautiful (2020)

Film

One of the great masters of photography, Helmut Newton made a name for himself exploring the female form and challenging the conservative confines of fashion photography in the second half of the 20th century. His cult status continued long after his tragic death in a Los Angeles car crash in 2004. His unique and striking way of depicting women has always posed the question - did he empower his subjects or treat them as sexual objects?

Through candid interviews with celebrities and his wife June, this documentary captures his legacy and seeks to answer questions about the themes at the core of his life's work – creating provocative and subversive images of women.
