Who really is Karl Lagerfeld? An Intimate Portrait | True Story Documentary Channel

One of the most recognisable men on the planet, Karl Lagerfeld was arguably the most famous German of our time. His ponytail and sunglasses have conquered the world. Yet, little is known about the person, about the man behind the façade that was Karl Lagerfeld. What was he like? What inspired him? And what was hiding behind those iconic glasses? His self-stylization, in which secrecy played an important part, put him alongside icons such as Andy Warhol and Jean Cocteau. His carefully crafted image was a marketing tool but also a representation of himself: “There is a glass wall between myself and the rest of the world.” This intimate portrait of Karl Lagerfeld breaks through this glass wall and shows the person behind the iconic façade.

The Germans are great

Yes, there are great and wonderful aspects to German culture. He was a Nazi. Full of himself and an exaggerated sense of self importance and superiority to others. He embraced being Nazi.
