Shadows on the Wall offers a stunning curation of truly individual, intimate images, with hardly any retouching or makeup. Lindbergh shows profound compassion for the tale nted women whom he loves and has worked with for many years: Nicole Kidman, Julianne Moore, Alicia Vikander, Charlotte Rampling, Dame Helen Mirren, Jessica Chastain, Kate Winslet, Léa Seydoux, Lupita Nyong´o, Penélope Cruz, Robin Wright, Rooney Mara, Uma Thurman, and Zhang Ziyi.
