Across 2017/2018 Depeche Mode embarked on their Global
Spirit Tour, in which they performed to more than 3 million fans at 115 shows
across the globe. This new visually-striking film, directed by award-winning
filmmaker and longtime artistic collaborator Anton Corbijn, captures the energy
and spectacle of the band’s performance from the tour along with a deeper look
into how their music and shows have been woven into the fabric of their fans’
lives.
Through the deeply emotional stories of six special Depeche
Mode fans, the film shows not only how and why the band’s popularity and
relevance has continued to grow over the course of their career, but provides a
unique look into music’s incredible power to build communities, enable people
to overcome adversity, and create connections across the boundaries of
language, location, gender, age, and circumstance. Depeche Mode: SPIRITS in the
Forest weaves together exhilarating musical performances, filmed at the final
shows of the Global Spirit Tour in Berlin’s famed Waldbühne (“Forest Stage”),
with intimate documentary footage filmed in fans’ hometowns across the globe.
