A bleak, introspective portrait of a musician's final descent into isolation and despair, told through fragmented, observational moments rather than narrative momentum.

The life and struggles of a notorious rock musician seeping into a pit of loneliness whose everyday life involves friends and family seeking financial aid and favors, inspired by rock music legend Kurt Cobain and his final hours.
