A Walk into the Sea: Danny Williams and the Warhol Factory
September 9, 2009 @ 7pm
This film deals with a darker side of the Warhol Factory. Director Esther Robinson’s riveting personal inquiry into the 1966 disappearance of Danny Williams, a promising young filmmaker who was Andy Warhol's lover and Robinson's uncle, features never-before-seen interviews with surviving Warhol Factory members and astonishing footage from Williams’ recently discovered films.
"First-time director Esther Robinson proves that a dash of subjectivity in documentary isn’t always a bad thing, showing a remarkable clarity of vision and thirst for knowledge in her superb [film]." Time Out
