The full trailer for Amy, Asif Kapadia's documentary about Amy Winehouse, is here. Get ready to sob into some tissues, because it will tear your soul apart.

Featuring a mix of archive footage, home videos and recordings of her live performances (including her endearingly stunned reaction to receiving a Grammy award), the trailer also hints at her fame-enabled downfall to substance abuse and her harassment by the paparazzi.

Amy debuted at Cannes this week to rave reviews, with many critics giving it five-star reviews. That hasn't stopped the film from garnering its fair share of controversy, not least from Winehouse's own family, who have slammed it as "misleading" and "unbalanced". Reg Traviss, who was her fiancé at the time of her death, has also criticised it as "nothing more than piece of orchestrated spin".

You'll be able to make up your own mind when the film comes out on 3 July in cinemas. You can watch the trailer in the meantime below:
