Sound of Metal
2020 | 121 min | K-12 | drama, musical
Ruben and Lou travel across America playing gigs on their never-ending tour. Their music is loud, frantic and passionate. After one gig, Ruben’s ears whine and his hearing deteriorates rapidly. A new, shocking situation brings Ruben to the brink of anxiety, and the old vices of the past begin to beckon again.
Lou finds him in an isolated nursing home run by eccentric veteran Joe. Under Joe’s strict discipline, Ruben’s silent research journey into his inner self begins. Still, the love of music and the longing for a former life remain strong in Ruben’s mind.
Directed by Darius Marder. As actors, e.g. Riz Ahmed, Olivia Cooke and Paul Raci.
