Special Screening
This eloquent tribute follows the creative “geographies” shaped by Franca Sozzani, charting how a singular editor became an enduring mentor to designers and image-makers across the world. Through closely observed interviews and personal contributions from family members to leading fashion voices, the film traces a practice rooted in curiosity, rigour and care. Careers are not merely discovered; they are nurtured, challenged and refined within a dialogue that values distinct voices and the power of difference.

As collaborators revisit decisive encounters, a philosophy comes into focus: success is never instantaneous but the result of time, attention and collective work. The filmmakers assemble these testimonies into a “visual cosmology”, where iconic moments and private memories cohere into a living archive. Rather than closing a chapter, the film opens a path towards mentorship as method, responsibility as inspiration and diversity as the engine of originality. In its graceful movement between past and future, it honours a legacy that continues to illuminate the possibilities of fashion, and the people who make it.
