Alice Neel was one of the great portrait painters of the 20th century. She reinvented the genre of portraiture by expressing the inner landscape of her varied sitters, among them Andy Warhol, Annie Sprinkle, Bella Abzug, and Allen Ginsberg. Painting a diverse cross-section of humanity, from Communist Party leaders to art world personalities to her neighbors in Spanish Harlem, Neel created a body of work that serves as a social document of New York and America in the 20th Century. The film will tell the story of Neel's life, exploring the struggles she faced as a woman artist, a single mother, and a painter who defied convention.

The documentary was directed by Alice Neel's grandson, Andrew Neel.

"Alice Neel" premiered at The Sundance Film Festival in 2007 and later won the Audience Award at the 2007 Newport Beach Film Festival later that year. The film was produced by SeeThink Productions.
