The documentary examines the cultural impact of Ren & Stimpy, which premiered on Nickelodeon in 1991 and quickly gained a following among both children and adults for its irreverent humor and inventive animation style. However, behind the scenes, the show was beset by conflicts between creator John Kricfalusi and the network, as well as allegations of abusive behavior toward young female fans. The film explores the complex personality of Kricfalusi, who was often at odds with those around him but also pushed the boundaries of what was possible in animation. Through interviews with former collaborators and fans, the documentary considers both the show's enduring legacy and the troubling aspects of its production.
