Absolut Warhola

Deutschland 2000/2001 Dokumentarfilm

Summary

Located somewhere in the middle of nowhere, in the "Ruthenian Bermuda Triangle" between Slovakia, Poland and the Ukraine, is Europe′s only Pop Art Museum. Stanislaw Mucha′s light-hearted documentary traces the roots of America′s pop-icon Andy Warhol, whose family heritage can be tracked down to the town of Medzilaborce and the neighboring village of Miková. His clan has always lived here, and they always will. His aunts and cousins have lots of time, they have schnapps, they are out of work, and they have each other, but each of them also has a vague idea of Warhol: His name has become a legend, a vision, a tangible link to a world they cannot comprehend, a world so big and so incredibly far away.
