My Life Directed By Nicolas Winding Refn is a unique insight into the life of one of the world’s most exciting filmmakers as he struggles to reconcile a fast growing international career with his role as a family man and father. Liv Corfixen documents, with uncompromising realism, her husband’s journey making Only God Forgives, the follow-up to the biggest film of his career to date, Drive.
Corfixen’s camera follows Refn as he and his family decamps to Bangkok for the 6 month production of Only God Forgives, up to and including its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. It demonstrates the warm friendship between Refn and Ryan Gosling, gives the audience a glimpse of cult director Alejandro Jodorowsky's tarot readings for both Refn and Corfixen, and reveals first-hand that directing a large scale international film, while simultaneously keeping a wife, two kids, a cast of actors and visiting Hollywood guests happy is no easy task.
My Life Directed By Nicolas Winding Refn makes it's U.K. premiere at the Glasgow film Festival this Wednesday, the 25th of February, before making it's bow on DVD on March 2nd.
