YUNGBLUD announces ‘revealing and uncompromising’ documentary

The massive accomplishments just keep on coming: fresh from the second Bludfest, a Number One album and his stunning surprise guest appearance at Back To The Beginning, YUNGBLUD is releasing a feature-length documentary next month.

Entitled YUNGBLUD. ARE YOU READY, BOY?, the Paul Dugdale-directed film will hit cinemas worldwide on August 20 and 24 via Trafalgar Releasing. It was captured at Berlin’s Hansa Studios Building and is described as a ‘revealing and uncompromising’ look at Dominic Harrison during this ‘pivotal moment in his career’, featuring 12 performances of songs from Idols.

“I wanted to make a film that truly documents where we are right now, at this moment, around the release of my most ambitious album to date,” Dom explains. “Berlin has always radiated complete, unfiltered truth. Every time I’ve visited Hansa Studios, it’s just fucking iconic.

“You can feel the history in Hansa; it’s in the silence between takes, the ceiling looming over you. You’re standing in the shadows of all these legends and asking yourself, ‘Who the fuck am I? And what am I gonna leave behind?’”

“When we made this film, it was in that special twilight zone between the record being finished and people hearing it for the first time,” adds Paul. “I always think of that moment before a release as such a unique time for an artist and it’s an extraordinary period to document because we can enter into it without any external noise or pre-conception. It allowed us to make something unaffected by the outside world, and there’s a really pleasing purity about that. We got to live in a moment with Dom, free of any external opinion and start a relationship from a totally blank canvas.

“The opportunity to capture YUNGBLUD at such a turbulent but rewarding moment of change, was an absolute privilege. Dom gave himself completely to the filmmaking process and I feel so proud of what we achieved together.”

Tickets go on sale from July 17.
