Based on Ulli Lommel's biography "Factory Fame - Working with Warhol" (Belleville Publishing 2015), the story, written by Irene Höfer and Ulli Lommel, focuses on Warhol's Factory life in Manhattan during the late 70s and Ulli Lommel's and Joe Dallesandro's memories. It also interprets Warhol's belief (as confided on his 50th birthday to Ulli Lommel) that "Legends don't die, they're at the beach in Rio". Filmed between October, 2016 and November, 2017 on location in New York City, Hollywood, Rio de Janeiro, Berlin, Bremen, Esslingen and Munich on 57 days of shooting.
