Salvatore: Shoemaker of Dreams

Directed by Luca Guadagnino

With Salvatore Ferragamo, Manolo Blahnik, Grace Coddington, Christian Louboutin and Suzy Menkes

In the early 20th century, impoverished teenage Italian cobbler Salvatore Ferragamo sailed from Naples to America to seek a better life. He settled in Southern California, and became Hollywood's go-to shoemaker during the silent era. In 1927, he returned to Italy and founded in Florence his namesake luxury brand. This feature-length documentary recounts his adventures.
