On New Year’s Eve, while his mother is away, Hlynur finds out Lola is a lesbian, but also ends up having sex with her. He soon finds out he and his mother are sharing more than a house.

NICO ICON (1995)

Jon W. — Sun, 06 Oct 2024 20:29:28 +0000

Nico was born in 1938 as Christa Päffgen. She was tall, blonde and slim, with a deep voice and big, strange eyes. ‘The siren of the sixties’ The Times called her at her death. It seemed that everyone who met her was enchanted by this gorgeous but bizarre woman. She associated with celebrities like Lou Reed, Jim Morrison, Jackson Browne and Andy Warhol. She played in films by Fellini and Philippe Garrel and she made records with The Velvet Underground. Filmmaker Susanne Ofteringer spoke with a lot of people who knew Nico, including her son, a boy who has the same curious eyes as his mother. The structure of the film resembles a collage of archive footage, music, photos and interviews, which gradually reveals the image of an intangible but fascinating personality.

Director: Susanne Ofteringer.
Writer: Susanne Ofteringer.
Stars: Nico (archive footage), Tina Aumont, Christian Päffgen, Edith Boulogne, Jackson Browne, John Cale, Danny Fields, Carlos De Maldonado-Bostock, Jonas Mekas, Paul Morrisey, Sterling Morrison, Billy Name, Nikos Papatakis, Lutz Ulbrich, Viva, Alan Wise, Helma Wolff, James Young.
Cinematographers: Judith Kaufmann, Katarzyna Remin, Sibylle Stürmer.
