Coco Chanel and Igor Stravinsky
Aka "Coco & Igor". Paris 1913. At the Theatre Des Champs-Elysees, Igor Stravinsky premieres "The Rite of Spring." Coco Chanel is mesmerized... But the revolutionary work is too modern: the enraged audience boos. A near riot ensues. Seven years later, Coco Chanel meets Stravinsky again - now a penniless refugee living in exile after the Russian Revolution. The attraction between them is immediate and electric. Coco offers Stravinsky and his family the use of her villa in Garches so that he will be able to continue his work. And so a passionate, intense love affair between two fascinating creative giants begins.
