    • Synopsis
    • IRIS is the charming new documentary about fashion icon Iris Apfel from legendary documentary filmmaker Albert Maysles (Grey Gardens, Gimme Shelter). It pairs the 87-year-old Maysles with Iris Apfel, the quick-witted, flamboyantly dressed 93-year-old style maven who has had an outsized presence on the New York fashion scene for decades. More than a fashion film, the documentary is a story about creativity and how, even at Iris' advanced age, a soaring free spirit continues to inspire.
