Synopsis
Twiggy captures the rise of a cultural icon who reshaped beauty, fashion, and fame. In the late 1960s, Twiggy’s striking look, wide eyes, sharp pixie cut, and fearless individuality, catapulted her from London teenager to global phenomenon almost overnight. More than a chronicle of her meteoric career, this is an intimate portrait of a woman learning to navigate the intense spotlight of celebrity while forging her own identity. Directed by Sadie Frost, who previously helmed the documentary Quant (BFF2021), this new work blends rare archival material with vivid storytelling, immersing audiences in the energy of Swinging London and the era’s cultural revolution. Stylish, bold, and emotionally rich, Twiggy offers a fresh perspective on a figure who transformed the way we think about beauty and self-expression. A story of influence, reinvention, and enduring relevance, Twiggy examines not only the image that defined a generation but also the creative drive and resilience behind it.
