With her next feature still under wraps, Sofia Coppola is pivoting from fiction to documentary — and from the personal to the deeply personal — with a new film titled Marc by Sofia, premiering out of competition at this year’s Venice International Film Festival.
More than just a retrospective, the film unfolds as an intimate portrait of Marc Jacobs, charting his early rise through fashion’s inner circles to becoming a defining voice of the Y2K era. Think of it as a cinematic scrapbook: unseen archival clips, off-duty moments, and the creative kinship between two cultural icons whose visions helped define a generation.
Referencing the designer’s beloved (and now shuttered) Marc by Marc Jacobs line, the documentary also delves into the brand’s lasting influence — including its unexpected resurrection through Jacobs’ Gen Z–coded diffusion label, Heaven.
