The English electronic band Depeche Mode that dominated the 80s music scene is back with a movie that honors their career. The movie Depeche Mode: SPIRITS in the forest focuses on their last concert tour around the world: the Global Spirit Tour, which was the longest tour they have ever done, reaching over 3 million fans in total, with 130 live shows.
The way the movie is directed, as the trailer reveals, makes it different from the other concert-band-movies. The incredible experience of the band’s Global Spirit Tour is told by the eyes of six special Depeche Mode fans from across the globe. The story told by these spectators depicts very well, how it feels to be connected to others with the power of music.
The film was directed by award-winning director and longtime artistic collaborator of the band, Anton Corbijn. It will be screened in more than 2,400 theaters worldwide for one day only, on November 21, but tickets are on sale now!
As the frontman Dave Gahan said: “I’m exceptionally proud to share this film and the powerful story that it tells. It’s amazing to see the very real ways that music has impacted the lives of our fans”. “In today’s world of turmoil and divisiveness, music really can be a force for good and can bring people together.” added Martin Gore.
The first trailer for the movie has just been released, watch it below:
