IDLES to release new documentary 'Don't Go Gentle'

Bristol rock outfit IDLES are releasing their documentary Don't Go Gentle, which is due to hit cinemas next month.

The film, directed by Mark Archer, will be available in cinemas from July 2nd, and there will be previews and Q+A sessions with filmmakers during the last week of June. The documentary, which spans the band's ten-year journey, will be on VOD from August 6th.

"Exploring their vulnerabilities through their experience, lyrics and sound, we learn the reasons why these five individuals have connected with legions of people across the world," says a synopsis of the film. "We see just how that relationship unfolds in the most courageous and positive of human ways.

“In a time when the ground is shifting beneath our feet, where open communication and truthful reflection are more vital than ever, we journey with lead singer Joe Talbot and the band as they tear across stages, knocking down stereotypes, empowering fans to talk about mental health and the realities we may not feel comfortable to speak about.”
