Pierre Thoretton’s film LAmour Fou is a love letter to memory, art and life reflected through the 50 year relationship between Yves Saint-Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé.
Filmed a year after Yves Saint-Laurents death in 2008, Thoretton followed Bergé during the breaking up of their art collection. Works by Matisse, Goya, Mondrian, all sold at Christies. The dismantling of their collection is the point of departure for an exploration of their relationship and their shared aesthetic world.
While Saint-Laurent’s absence dominates the film, Thorettons unrivalled access to his archive means his image is renewed through unseen personal photographs by friends such as William Klein and Helmut Newton.
