Kurt Cobain About a Son

Synopsis

Kurt Cobain About A Son is an intimate and moving portrait of the late musician and artist Kurt Cobain told entirely in his own voice—without celebrity sound bites, news clips, sensational tabloid angles or attempts to mimic a grunge aesthetic. Instead, filmmaker AJ Schnack has created something closer to an autobiography of Cobain—his successes and failures, thoughts and experiences, allowing the audience unprecedented intimacy with a legendary figure in popular culture.
