Celebrate the life and work of iconic filmmaker, Sofia Coppola.  
 
Raised inside filmmaking’s strange machinery, Sofia Coppola appeared in The Godfather films and grew up surrounded by cinema, yet her work rejects Hollywood bombast. 
 
From The Virgin Suicides through Lost in Translation, Marie Antoinette and Priscilla, Coppola’s films explore youth, alienation, fathers and daughters, beauty and loss – each in a visually curated style that is unmistakably her own.  
 
This illustrated and comprehensive guide to Sofia Coppola includes: 

  • A film‑by‑film exploration of Coppola’s complete directorial career. 
  • The personal and artistic influences shaping her distinctive aesthetic. 
  • Key recurring themes and visual motifs across her films. 
  • Insight into her personal life following her evolution from ‘Francis Ford Coppola’s daughter’ to auteur. Is destiny inherited, or is it claimed? 


Calm, precise and ‘super opinionated’, she has crafted a body of work that is instantly recognisable. 
 
Written by industry expert Ian Nathan, this is the essential guide for film lovers seeking to understand – and celebrate – Sofia Coppola’s enduring influence.
