Nirvana: Live at Reading
Directed by Toru Uehara
Produced by Geffen Records, Festival Republic
A high-energy concert documentary capturing Nirvana at a peak moment of cultural dominance, infused with bittersweet historical weight knowing it was their final UK performance.
This was the band's second performance at the music festival and their first since the success of 'Nevermind' had elevated them to the position of what magazines called the "biggest" rock band in the world. It was also sadly their final concert in the United Kingdom.
