Description

Born in 1929 in Brussels, Audrey Hepburn was abandoned by her father at 6. Sent in an english boarding school, she immersed herself into classical dance, a school of grace and discipline which will leave a mark on her whole existence. Just after World War II, her career rose underneath Colette's support : in 1951, the french author chose this « treasure found on the beach » of Monte Carlo to incarnate her Gigi in Broadway. Since then, offers came tumbling out.
