Film still from "Couture" directed by Alice Winocour (USA, 2025).

Fashion is the central axis of Moritz Feed Doc's programing. Edition after edition, the festival brings us closer to the richness and complexity of a cultural phenomenon in constant transformation. Fashion as a reflection of society and its idiosyncrasies are at the core of the productions and activities in each edition. The screenings and parallel activities that take place during the days of the festival claim the city and its streets as an inspiring source of the ecosystem of today's fashion.

Reiner Holzemer, a Retrospective

Considered one of the most influential filmmakers in the genre, Reiner Holzemer has developed a singular career marked by taking an intimate, rigorous and deeply cinematic look at the creators and creative processes that define auteur fashion. The filmmaker will make a special appearance in Barcelona to open the festival with his film AKRIS: Fashion With a Heritage (USA, 2025), which explores the balance between tradition, craftsmanship and innovation of the 100-year-old Swiss brand.

In honor of the festival's 10th anniversary, a retrospective of Holzemer work brings together five additional films that exemplify his distinctive approach. In Dries (2017), he follows Dries Van Noten during a pivotal year in his career; in Martin Margiela: In His Own Words (2019), the filmmaker addresses one of the most enigmatic figures in contemporary fashion; Thom Browne: The Man Who Tailors Dreams (2024) offers an immersion into the singular universe of a creator who has transformed classic tailoring through a radical and narrative vision. Finally, two documentaries dedicated to two major photographers, Juergen Teller and William Eggleston.

2026 Program

Other films in the festival program include Naked Ambition (USA, 2023), Dennis Scholl and Kareem Tabsch's documentary on little-known designer and photographer Eleanor “Bunny” Yeager, who shaped 20th-century pop culture by popularizing bikinis, discovering Bettie Page, and influencing Playboy. Alain Berliner's Bardot (France, UK, 2025), profiles Brigitte Bardot, who gave up fame in 1973, fleeing heartbreak, paparazzi and exploitation; in a rare final appearance, she opens her world and her home at La Madrague to talk about her work and legacy. In a joint project by Rabi Yansané, Emmanuelle Wagner, Rolf Lambert African Styles (Germany, 2023) highlights a new generation of independent self learners who share a common passion for African culture and aesthetics and a strong ethic in opposition to the huge fast fashion industry. Alice Winocour's Couture (USA, 2025) takes place in the frenzy of Fashion Week in Paris; three women grappling with their own tragedies cross paths in a film that reveals the quiet resilience beneath the surface of public performance and honors the unspoken solidarity shared among them across professions, cultures and continents. The larger-than-life love story of Alan and Adrianne takes over the big screen in Shannon Walsh's Adrianne & The Castle (USA, 2024); when Adrianne passes away, Alan creates a home that sits somewhere between an altar, a sanctuary, and a museum—an innocent fairy tale that celebrates the idea of a “soulmate” and transcends any cinematic categorization.

With over 20 films on the docket and talks on music and fashion, influencers, identity and the human and environmental toll of our excessive consumption, the festival strikes a balance between the glamor and hedonism surrounding the fashion world.
