Kurt Cobain in his own words

Taken from 25 hours of previously unheard interviews with Kurt Cobain, ABOUT A SON recounts the Nirvana frontman's life as he himself remembered it. The film reveals an intimate portrait of a well-known yet conversely not very well-understood man, whose life ended tragically too early. Cobain's views on music, art and fame are intimately confided in this stirring documentary, to an awesome soundtrack that plays like Kurt's favourites mixtape.

Artists featured include Arlo Guthrie, the Melvins, Bad Brains, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Half Japanese, Scartch Acid, The Vaselines, Mark Lanegan, Butthole Surfers, Mudhoney, Iggy Pop, Leadbelly, REM and David Bowie.
