This 100 minute DVD features the two best-selling Nico vid eos An Underground Experience and Heroine. DVD also contains extra features including a complete discography of Nico and facilities to play individual tracks.
Two unique, very different films on one DVD of one of rock and rolls most provocative and controversial stars. HEROINE is a hauntingly beautiful film of Nico's acoustic performance at Manchester's library theatre. The overpowering ambience of her music manages to cross over the fine line between tragedy and joy. Richly lyrical and intensely emotional Nico reflects on her loves, losses and fears along the melancholy echoes of The Velvet Underground.
An Underground Experience is a seedy documentation of one of the most important icons of subculture. She is caught on suitably grainy video footage doing what she did best, performing in an underground club. Shot in the early 80's with punk rock as an audience the film is hardly stunning, yet this somehow enhances its authenticity. Nico's presence is both powerful and at times moving especially during the interview section.
