When prompted by a female voice off-screen, "Who are you, Kurt?" the enthusiastic little boys replies, "I'm Kurt Cobain!", evidently unaware what his name will come to mean in music history and to his generation in later decades.

The film combines Cobain's journals and other writings, unreleased audio, home videos, and interviews with his friends and families to tell the story of Cobain's troubled early years and his subsequent rise to fame as the front man and lead guitarist for Nirvana.

Though the relationship between Love and Cobain is often remembered as chaotic, the footage reveals happy and loving moments with the young family. Morgen told Vanity Fair earlier this year that after Frances Bean saw the film at Sundance, she said, "You made the film I wanted to see."
