A distinctive portrait of Bryan Ferry, the glam rock icon.
Bryan Ferry, with his velvety voice and English dandy style, has been an emblematic figure of glam rock for 50 years alongside David Bowie. As the leader of Roxy Music, he made his mark in the 1970s with innovative melodies and provocative album covers. Coming from a working-class family in northern England, Ferry studied Fine Arts before electrifying the music scene with bold rock blending futurism and romanticism. In his solo career, he stands out as an elegant crooner with hits like Love Is the Drug and Avalon. A lover of art, cycling, and jazz, he draws inspiration from Marcel Duchamp and Billie Holiday. This documentary traces his journey, from working-class England to the pop avant-garde, highlighting his influence on contemporary bands like Franz Ferdinand.
