It presents a nuanced exploration of her brilliance, passion, and the impact of mental instability and past abuse on her actions. The narrative is tied to the film "I Shot Andy Warhol," which features notable actors and premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, offering a deeper understanding of Solanas' complex character.
