Amy Winehouse's family is claiming that the late singer's upcoming documentary "Amy" is "misleading."
The documentary, directed by Asif Kapadia, was initially supported by Winehouse's family, but they told People that they are withdrawing their support for the film.
"It is both misleading and contains some basic untruths," the family told People. "The narrative is formed by the testimony of a narrow sample of Amy's associates, many of whom had nothing to do with her in the last years of her life. Counter views expressed to the filmmakers did not make the final cut."
The documentary contains unseen archive footage belonging to Winehouse that helps tell the story "in her own words" of her life leading up to her early death, according to the film's IMBD page.
Winehouse died at 27-years-old as a result of severe alcohol poisoning.
The family told People the film ignores the crucial role played by Winehouse's ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil, misunderstands her condition, and incorrectly alleges that she had an absent and unsupportive father.
Despite the family's claims, the filmmakers are standing behind their project.
"We came on board with the full backing of the Winehouse family and we approached the project with total objectivity," a spokesman for the film told People. "We conducted in the region of 100 interviews with people that knew Amy. The story that the film tells is a reflection of our findings from these interviews."
The documentary is scheduled to debut at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival in May.
