Description:
"Andy Warhol: Made in China" is a look at
the man behind the legend: a film that captures the real Andy Warhol, as an
artist and as a person, as he travels through China, from Hong Kong's glitter
to the mystique of Peking's Forbidden City. Set in the Far East, the story
begins with the opening of what was once the most elegant jet-set watering hole
in Asia, Hong Kong's "I Club," whose owner, a young Chinese
millionaire, decided to try an experiment: to transplant the most advanced,
far-out Western culture to the Far East in a multimillion-dollar club that
offered everything from restaurants and bars, to a health club and even an art
gallery. Alfred Sui invited Andy Warhol and his entourage to open his new night
club in 1985 which was to be patronised by the wealthy and famous, who wish to
see and be seen. In the following days after the opening, Andy becomes a
tourist visiting Peking, the Great Wall of China, Red Square but all the time
comparing eastern culture with western culture and appearing to be mildly
disappointed in the lack of westernization in China (no McDonalds!). Andy’s
egocentricity also begins to surface as he realises that the Chinese really do
not know who Andy Warhol is, that it is only American tourists who recognise
him and want to take his photo. A strange but interesting doco with rare
footage of a relaxed and open Andy Warhol.
