A kaleidoscopic immersion into the underground art and music scene of 1960s New York, this documentary eschews conventional rock biographies in favor of a sensory-rich, cinematic experience. Through a vibrant mosaic of avant-garde films, rare archival footage, and personal testimonies, it paints the Velvet Underground not just as a band—but as the beating heart of a creative explosion. By interweaving interviews with John Cale and Maureen Tucker alongside voices from their cultural milieu, the film evokes the fraught, fragile energy of a time when music intersected with performance, queerness, and counterculture. More than a story about a band, it is a journey into a cultural explosion that still resonates today.
