ABOUT

A feature documentary by Paul H-O and Tom Donahue.

In 1999, public-access TV presenter Paul set out to capture the ultimate prize in art world journalism - to tape a series of interviews with the elusive art superstar Cindy Sherman. Surprising many (including Paul), she agreed. So started the 'Cindy World' interviews, and Paul and Cindy's relationship. These two artists, who loved to be in control of the camera, were to fall in love in front of it.

“I found it sweet, disturbing, awkward and romantic all at once – and one of the most revealing portraits I’ve ever seen of the mistress of camouflage ” - Elle Magazine

"Far too outlandish to be believable - except it's all true" - Wired

“ ***** (5 Stars)… brings the art world of the ’80s and ’90s down to an accessible level.” - Time Out New York

“If a doc manages to inform and entertain, it’s ahead of the competition. And if it manages not to lose its assets while dipping its toe into murkier issues… then it’s really a work of art. Such is Guest of Cindy Sherman.” - Variety
