LARGER THAN LIFE: The Kevyn Aucoin Story

Larger Than Life: The Kevyn Aucoin Story explores the life of the iconic makeup artist who transformed the profession into a prominent and influential art form. Director and makeup artist Tiffany Bartok paints a beautiful and deeply personal portrait of a man who, as both and artist and LGBTQ advocate, dedicated his life to elevating the inner confidence and presence of others. Through intimate footage and interviews with his friends and family, Bartok weaves through the journey of Aucoin’s life up until his tragic end — reminding everyone that he truly was larger than life.

Larger Than Life features interviews with Kevyn’s family and childhood friends, Tori Amos, Christy Turlington, Isabella Rossellini, Isaac Mizrahi, Cher, Kate Moss and many more.

“…It shows a side of Kevyn I never knew about, it shows the whole man and makes me love him even more.” — Kate Moss
