Synopsis

Brigid Berlin’s story takes us on a journey through the life of a blueblood socialite turned Andy Warhol bad-girl. Friends and admirers such as John Waters and Patricia Hearst, as well as Berlin herself, tell the story of a high society girl who rebelled against a media mogul father and a controlling mother to star in several Andy Warhol films, most notably Chelsea Girls. As an artist in her own right, Brigid created performance pieces about her life, incorporating Polaroids and audiotapes before they became chic.Join Berlin through rare archival footage of Andy Warhol’s Factory, including taped conversations with Warhol himself and little-seen footage from classic Factory films. Pie in the Sky, destined to become a cult classic, takes the viewer into a world where food obsessions, pug paraphernalia, body art, drugs, and celebrity are among the many facets of an unforgettable pop figure. –www.docurama.com/

Worth watching not only for Brigid Berlin and the archival footage of her and the Factory people, but also for Debbie Harry's amazing rendition of All the Way over the credits.
