The Vigil (for Kurt Cobain) (1998)

Directed by Justin MacGregor

Overview

Following Kurt Cobain’s suicide in 1994, a group of twentysomethings leave a small town in Alberta to go join the vigil for Cobain in Seattle in this humorous film. The characters in the grunge-fueled Winnebago include two estranged brothers, a tough vegetarian, a hot lady rocker and the strange Meg. Along the way, lessons are learned and wounds begin healing in Justin MacGregor’s directorial debut, which has obvious appeal for Nirvana fans.

Length 86 minutes
