Built around a transcendent performance from Trine Dyrholm, NICO, 1988 follows the legendary singer-songwriter as she approaches fifty, leading a solitary existence in Manchester, far from her 1960s glam days as a Warhol superstar and vocalist for groundbreaking art-rock band the Velvet Underground. Struggling with her demons and the consequences of a muddled life, she longs to rebuild a relationship with her estranged son. A brave and uncompromising musician, Nico strives for rebirth: as an artist, a mother, and a woman.
