Documentary master Nick Broomfield tracks down the true story of the creative heart and the biggest heartbreaker in what would become the world's greatest rock band.

When Broomfield was 14, he crossed paths with Brian Jones on a train. Six years later, the founder and musical genius of The Stones would be dead, and his significance in history would gradually diminish. Broomfield blends interviews with previously unseen footage, including from hysterical performances and Brian's early private life. The most amusing parts are the interviews with the cool Bill Wyman (the only one from the Stones) and the sweet old girlfriends of Brian, who he made pregnant before moving in with their families, due to a lack of a stable home of his own. Of course, we get an insight into the rivalry within the band and a vivid sense of the sexual, fashion, societal, and musical revolution of the 1960s."
