Kim Novak’s Vertigo from Alexandre O. Phillippe (Chain Reactions, 78/52, Lynch/Oz) is a lyrical and intimate portrait, blending rare archival footage with deeply personal reflections and vivid glimpses into Kim’s reclusive life. While Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo remains her most iconic role, the film explores how that performance - and the duality it captured - mirrors the ongoing tension between image and identity that shaped Kim’s life and led her to walk away from fame to remain true to herself.
