A Walk Into the Sea: Danny Williams and the Warhol Factory (Esther Robinson, 2007, 92 min)
Films offered in conjunction with Warhol Snapshots, 1973–1986
The documentary films in this series explore the multiple realities of the 60s and 70s, both in their time and in retrospect. Esther Robinson's portrait of her uncle Danny Williams, Warhol's onetime lover, collaborator, and a filmmaker in his own right, offers an exploration of the Factory era, an homage to Williams's talent, a journey of family discovery, and a compelling inquiry into Williams's mysterious disappearance at age 27.
