Synopsis: Welcome to Grey Gardens... as you've never seen it before. Three years before the Maysles' landmark documentary introduced the world to Edith and Edie Beale-the unforgettable mother-daughter (and Jackie O. relatives) living in a decaying dream world on Long Island-renowned photographer Peter Beard chronicled life at their crumbling estate during one summer in 1972. For the first time ever, director Göran Olsson (The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975) assembles this long-lost footage-featuring glimpses of luminaries like Andy Warhol, Mick Jagger, and Truman Capote-into a one-of-a-kind family portrait bursting with the loving squabbles, quotable bon mots, and impromptu musical numbers that would make Big and Little Edie beloved cultural icons.
