In order to gain some perspective on Andy Warhol's family history, director Stanislaw Mucha visits the small Slovakian town of Mikova, from where the iconic artist's parents emigrated. Filled with interviews and anecdotes from relatives and locals, none of whom knew Warhol (born Warhola), this documentary offers a portrait of a strange and forgotten part of Europe. Additionally, the filmmakers peek inside the continent's only Warhol museum, a rundown building in nearby Medzilaborce.

Audience Member In Slovakia, Andy Warhol is a major claim to fame and we find out just exactly what that pertains to in this documentary focusing on Warholâ(TM)s extended family, (who he never met). Trailer and review: http://mediaje.blogspot.com/2011/03/absolut-warhola-2001.html Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Disappointing. Guy goes to the Slovakian town where Warhol's parents emigrated from. He then proceeds to make a mockery of them for not knowing Warhol's art. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Surprisingly slow and gentle, it's a pretty fascinating look at the small Slovakian village (or villages, rather) that claim Warhol as their own, without much understanding of him or his work. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
