Synopsis by Amanda Van Keuren

Tommy Vance gives seminal grunge band Nirvana a thorough, unauthorized look in this raw, uncensored presentation. Using archival footage of live performances, Vance assumes full journalistic freedom, probing rock critics, musicologists, and Nirvana biographer Charles Cross for opinions on the band's impact on the history of rock music. Also, a psychologist delves into the mind and motivations of frontman Kurt Cobain. Nirvana: Rock Review includes performances of popular Nirvana songs by tribute band Cobain, including "About a Girl," "Smells Like Teen Spirit," "Pennyroyal Tea," "In Bloom," and many more.
