Bettina Rheims, My Life 2005

Bettina Rheims opens the doors of her studio in the Marais to us. We discover the famous photographer taking the time to reassure her model, and her need to set a slow pace. She looks back on her childhood, her photographic satori and everything that photography means to her. In counterpoint, Serge Bramly, writer and faithful collaborator, delivers his confessions on Bettina's beginnings and elucidates her diverse body of work as a whole. From the conception of a new book, to the thrill of discovering the first photographic prints, to the opening of her grand retrospective in Düsseldorf, we follow Bettina, who shares her views on her works.
