Movies

-- Esther Robinson is an accidental film director. A chance meeting at the Andy Warhol Foundation led her to discover a cache of 20 films directed by her uncle, Danny Williams, whom she had never met. Williams had been a fixture at Andy Warhol's Factory, making experimental films about Factory habitués, including Edie Sedgwick and the Velvet Underground, and running the light show at the Exploding Plastic Inevitable. In 1966, at the age of 27, Williams disappeared on a beach, never to be seen again. Robinson made a documentary, A Walk into the Sea, about her uncle. It screens today alongside Williams's films. Live musical accompaniment from T. Griffin and Guy Picciotto. Institute of Contemporary Art, South Boston. Tickets and more information.
