Cobain: Montage of Heck

Running time: 144'

Production: USA 2015

Hailed as one of the most innovative and intimate documentaries of all time. Experience Kurt Cobain like never before in the only ever fully authorised portrait of the famed music icon.

Academy Award nominated filmmaker Brett Morgen expertly blends Cobain’s personal archive of art, music, never seen before films, animation and revelatory interviews from his family and closest friends.

Wildly creative and highly acclaimed, follow Kurt from his earliest years in this visceral and detailed cinematic insight of an artist at odds with his surroundings.

Fans and those of the Nirvana generation will learn things about Cobain they never knew while those who have recently discovered the man and his music will know what makes him the lasting icon that he still is today.
