The preview of Dries goes behind the scenes, as the fashion icon prepares for a show by choosing fabrics and clipping flowers at his estate, opening with a look at his spring '15 presentation, where the models lay down in grass as if they're Ophelia floating down the river.

"The word 'fashion' I don't like, because fashion means something which is over after six months," Dries says at one point. "I would like to find a word which is more timeless."

The forthcoming documentary looks back on his 25-year-long career and offers a rare inside look at one of the world's most private designers.
