Hailed as one of the most innovative and intimate documentaries of all time, experience Kurt Cobain like never before in the only ever fully authorized portrait of the famed music icon. Academy Award nominated filmmaker Brett Morgen expertly blends Cobain's personal archive of art, music, never seen before movies, animation and revelatory interviews from his family and closest friends.

VIBE

This is a raw, deeply introspective journey into the mind of an icon, pieced together from his own unfiltered archives. It feels melancholic and unsettling, a vulnerable exploration of creativity, identity, and the pressures of fame, presented with an experimental, almost stream-of-consciousness flow.
