In an emotionally charged new trailer for In Whose Name?, Kim Kardashian confronts her ex-husband Kanye West, tearfully declaring, “Your personality was not like this a few years ago.” The line captures the sorrow and confusion she felt witnessing his evolution—an evolution unfolding in the spotlights of fame and personal struggle.
The documentary, directed by Nico Ballesteros, spans six years of footage offering a raw, intimate portrait of Kanye’s life. It features emotional highs and lows—from his candid admissions of being off his medications for five months to the fallout of his controversial actions and public unraveling.
Among the film’s most intense moments are Kim’s fraught exchanges with Kanye, including an alarming on-screen confrontation: when he warns, “Never tell me I’m gonna wake up one day and have nothing,” she quietly begins, “We can talk about that later, but—” only to be interrupted, “It ain’t no ‘but’.” These snippets lay bare the tension and emotional exhaustion that marked the end of their nearly seven-year marriage.
In Whose Name? promises a deeply personal and unfiltered look at fame, mental health, and fractured love. The documentary opens in theaters nationwide on September 19, offering audiences both empathy and unease as it peels back the veneer of celebrity.
