From the mind of Saint Laurent’s creative director, Anthony Vaccarello, comes "Sportin’ Life,” a documentary and the sixth installment of his ongoing international art project, SELF. With directorial support from Abel Ferrara, the documentary was selected as part of the 77th annual Venice International Film Festival.
Told through the perspective of creatives Willem Dafoe, Cristina Chiriac, Anna Ferrara, Paul Hipp and Joe Delia, “Sportin’ Life” is a raw documentation of the life of an artist.
“I have been shooting predominantly documentaries the past 10 years or so,” says Abel Ferrara. “Whatever the subject—Piazza Vittorio, Padre Pio—we also film the process itself.... so our team and I are a part of it. The subject of my new documentary is the relationship I have to my work, to Willem Dafoe, and my music and art. These relationships are the starting point and I could not avoid facing what the world went through this year with the pandemic.”
The documentary will premiere Saturday, September 5th.
