Depeche Mode is set to debut a fresh concert motion picture.
Depeche Mode, the renowned British electronic duo, is set to release their new concert film, "Depeche Mode: M," in cinemas and IMAX screens worldwide on October 28, 2025. This limited theatrical event will be screened across over 2,500 cinemas in more than 60 countries[1][2][3][4].
The film captures Depeche Mode’s three sold-out shows at Mexico City’s Foro Sol Stadium in September 2023, during their Memento Mori Tour. Directed by the award-winning Mexican filmmaker Fernando Frías, the concert film blends live performances with deeper explorations of themes around music, mortality, and Mexican cultural reflections on death[1][4].
The film demonstrates the timeless, multicultural impact of Depeche Mode, delving into the music and Mexican culture, as well as the theme of impermanence. Singer Dave Gahan has praised the work of Frías, calling it "truly wonderful"[5].
Tickets for the screenings will go on sale starting September 17, 2025[2][3][4]. The film premiered earlier in 2025 at the Tribeca Festival before its worldwide cinema release[1][3][4]. Sony Music Entertainment describes the film as an intense musical and spiritual journey[6].
The profound connection between music, impermanence, and Mexican tradition is a central theme in the "Depeche Mode: M" concert film. Fans of Depeche Mode and cinema enthusiasts alike are eagerly awaiting its release this fall[7].
