A documentary on Yves Saint-Laurent and the legendary fashion designer's final show.

Fabrice Champion was an accomplished trapeze artist when a circus accident paralyzed him from the neck down. But he is determined to return to the big top.

Fabrice Champion was an internationally recognized trapeze artist. During a rehearsal, he became quadriplegic following a collision in flight. For years, Fabrice tried different therapies. While teaching in the National Circus Schools, he met Matias and Alexandre, two acrobatic students. Together, they invented the first "tetra-acrobatic" choreographies. For Fabrice, it was the beginning of a new way to live with his paralysis. For Alexandre and Matias, it was the beginning of a new approach to their discipline.

In this deeply moving, award-winning French documentary, a family reflects on the murder of their 29-year-old son and tries to move beyond feelings of hatred and revenge.

As Yves Saint Laurent, one of the greatest Parisian haute couture designers, draws the sketches for his final collection, behind the scenes, Pierre Bergé manages a series of events to celebrate the fashion icon as a modern myth.
