Synopsis

This film is an intimate and emotional exploration of the life of musician and artist Kurt Cobain, drawn from over 25 hours of previously unreleased audio interviews conducted by music journalist Michael Azerrad for his book *Come As You Are: The Story of Nirvana*. In the film, Cobain reflects on his life, including his childhood and adolescence, his journey into music, and his experiences with sudden fame. The interviews, which have never been publicly released before, offer a deeply personal look at Cobain, providing insight into his thoughts on his art, his music, and the era in which he lived.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
