Lucian Freud: A Self Portrait

The Brief

An uncompromising look at the human condition. This documentary opens the door to the work of Lucian Freud, one of the most uncompromising and influential figures in British art history. Through raw, psychologically charged portraits, we follow his artistic development across a career spanning more than 70 years. The film offers insight into Freud’s life and working methods, from his early years in London to his late works of the 2000s. With interviews and a calm, respectful focus on the paintings themselves, it becomes a fascinating portrait of an artist who helped shape modern figurative art.
