The music movement that promised to stay underground... then accidentally changed everything in 3 years flat.
An extension of punk and the fury of the 70s, Grunge was built on the impossibility of living in this world without transforming it. On a categorical refusal to collaborate and the need to create your own rules. The subculture as a refuge. Grunge was a secret movement, a piracy that should never have become popular. A bubble whose epilogue was played out in 3 years, between 1991 and 1994. What happened to this rage?

Charlotte Blum
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Charlotte Blum spent years convincing notoriously media-shy figures like Endino to participate; several agreed only after other grunge docs were deemed 'too MTV.'
The documentary's '1991-1994' timeframe deliberately excludes posthumous Kurt Cobain mythology, focusing instead on working musicians who watched their refuge become a global brand.
