Gripping and provocative, The Life and Death of Sophie Stark tells a story of fame, love, and legacy through the propulsive rise of an iconoclastic artist.
"It's hard for me to talk about love. I think movies are the way I do that," says Sophie Stark, a visionary and unapologetic filmmaker. She uses stories from the lives of those around her--her obsession, her girlfriend, and her husband--to create movies that bring her critical recognition and acclaim. But as her career explodes, Sophie's unwavering dedication to her art leads to the shattering betrayal of the people she loves most.
Told in a chorus of voices belonging to those who knew her best, The Life and Death of Sophie Stark is an intimate portrait of an elusive woman whose monumental talent and relentless pursuit of truth reveal the cost of producing great art, both for the artist and for the people around her.
