Nico - Icon

Documentary on Christa »Nico« Päffgen's career in pop music and drugs. The life of Nico is a perfect mirror of the times and places she lived in, from Berlin and Paris to New York, where Andy Warhol made her part of his »Factory«. In the early eighties, the Velvet Underground singer becomes an icon, representing gloominess and longing for death. In 1988 she dies on Ibiza. NICO-ICON is a professional approach to a subject of worship, a compilation of encounters, film extracts and music.
