A new documentary titled 'Amy,' based on Amy Winehouse's life before she passed away at the age of 27 will be screened at the upcoming Cannes Film Festival, scheduled for May 13 to 22, 2015. However, Amy's family members have completely disapproved of the documentary.

US Weekly reports that the late singer's family members have claimed that while the allegations made against them in the new documentary are false, information regarding Amy is also "misleading."

US Weekly stated that Amy's relatives told them, "The Winehouse family would like to disassociate themselves from the forthcoming film about their much missed and beloved Amy."

Furthermore, Amy's relatives complained that the documentary was more focused on 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." They also alleged that the film-makers did not consider any "counter-views."

Earlier this month, the film-makers released the trailer of the documentary and claimed that the film had incorporated several "unheard and unseen" footage and recordings. It seems that this footage alleges that her family and management did not provide the late singer with the help she needed at that time. As expected, such allegations have not been taken lightly by her family.

The report quotes the late singer's family members saying, "Amy was an adult who could never be told what she could and could not do." They added that the filmmakers have failed to include those statements that depict Amy's family and doctors doing everything possible to help her overcome all stages of her ailment.

On the other hand, the representatives for the documentary have an entirely different point of view. In a statement given to Rolling Stone, the representatives claimed they had been fully supported by Amy's family all through the documentary. They also claimed that the film-makers had approached the project with "total objectivity."

The statement read, "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."
