The openly gay woman who always felt different never dreamed she would be in a multi-platinum band, touring with legends or that, thanks to drug addiction, she could lose it all. Given a video camera just before Hole's infamous Live Through This world tour, Patty filmed everything; the shows, the parties, and startlingly intimate footage of Kurt and Courtney.
