The Making of an Underground Film is a 1965 documentary that explores the work of filmmaker Piero Heliczer. This film is notable for its rare footage of The Velvet Underground and features interviews with influential figures in the avant-garde scene.
This film is quite scarce, often overshadowed by more mainstream releases from the era. It was released by Boo-Hooray as part of an exhibit dedicated to Heliczer and The Dead Language Press, which gives it that collector’s allure. There have been various formats available, but finding a decent print can be a challenge. The limited exposure and unique content keep the interest alive for those who appreciate the nuances of underground cinema.
