Sometimes greatness comes from the strangest places.
In this witty, affectionate and sIyly humorous film, German documentary fiImmaker Stanislaw Mucha traces American Pop icon Andy Warhol's family roots back to two unassuming vilIages in Eastern Europe. There he finds WarhoI's eccentric relatives, aII of whom treat their famous hometown boy with pride, though no one actualIy knew him or can comprehend his art. They knew so littIe of him that when WarhoI sent some of his original works of art to his relatives, they used them as clothing or toys for their children. With a gentIe humanistic touch, the fiIm swings from the art of WarhoI to his relatives - aII characters in their own right - and their "art" of coming to grips with Iife and the strange outside world which seems so far away. These villagers' heaIthy attitude towards Iife, art and the looming modern world makes Absolut WarhoIa a buoyant documentary.
