From acclaimed documentary filmmaker Nick Broomfield (KURT & COURTNEY, AILEEN WOURNOS: SELLING OF A SERIAL KILLER) comes a poignant and melancholy look back at the brilliant young founder of The Rolling Stones, the incredibly gifted - yet incredibly troubled - young genius whose life ended far too soon.
Featuring revealing interviews with all the main players, and a mountain of stunning, unseen archival materials released for the first time, THE STONES AND BRIAN JONES explores the creative musical genius of Jones.
Though Brian Jones was fundamental to the success of the band he formed, this haunting film questions why the founder of what would become the greatest rock'n'roll band in the world has been left behind in the shadows of history.
