This is a collection of works by Sofia Coppola, an American film director, producer, screenwriter, actress, and fashion designer.

This book, the artist's first art book, covers her entire career in film. It comprises a collection of the artist's personal photographs and ephemera, including early drafts, collages of reference materials, inspirations, annotated scripts, and previously unreleased behind-the-scenes records. All eight of her works are detailed in this book.

From "The Virgin Suicides" (1999) to "Lost in Translation" (2003), "Marie Antoinette" (2006), "The Beguiled" (2017), and her latest work "Priscilla" (scheduled for release in Fall 2023), which depicts the childhood of Elvis Presley's wife Priscilla Presley at Graceland, this book offers a satisfying glimpse into the making of a number of undeniable masterpieces of the 21st century.

Edited and fully annotated by the artist herself, this book allows readers to explore her methods, references, private encounters with collaborators, and previously unseen creative processes. It includes a long interview with film journalist Lynn Hirschberg, in which she discusses the brilliant body of work that emerges from the extremely personal images and texts collected from her archive.
