Inside the Unlikely Bond Between Lucian Freud and Kate Moss

In 2002, Lucian Freud unveiled a portrait of a naked and pregnant Kate Moss, a rare celebrity subject for the artist who had turned down Princess Diana.

Directed by James Lucas, the film stars Ellie Bamber as Moss and Derek Jacobi as Freud, and explores their intense studio sessions, personal revelations, and the bond that formed despite their contrasting lifestyles.
