Summary

More than twenty years have passed since Kurt Cobain took his own life in April 1994. Today, his legacy continues to fascinate, inspire, and haunt us. This riveting chronicle, which accompanies award-winning director Brett Morgen's highly anticipated documentary, paints an illuminating and honest portrait of the Nirvana frontman, capturing the contradictions that made up his character: He could be sincere and sentimental and also ironic and sarcastic, was sweet yet sour, and was both serious and very funny. Cobain's widow, Courtney Love, and the Cobain Estate approached Morgen to make a fi lm examining Kurt's life, and after five years of research, filming, and countless interviews, a work has emerged that depicts the true spirit of the '90s rock legend. The film includes interviews with numerous family members and friends, many of whom speak publicly about their relationship with Kurt for the first time
