DEPECHE MODE: M is a cinematic journey into the heart of Mexican culture's relationship with death, framed by the iconic performances of Depeche Mode during their 2023 Memento Mori tour. Conceived and directed by award-winning Mexican filmmaker Fernando Frías, the film captures the band's three sold-out shows in Mexico City, attended by over 200,000 fans, blending concert footage with interpretive interstitials and archival material. DEPECHE MODE: M celebrates the band's global influence while delving into the profound connection between music, mortality, and Mexican tradition -- a sacred meeting point where pain, memory, joy, and dance dissolve into one another, blurring into something profoundly and beautifully human.

Seeing Gahan and the band's prime songwriter and guitarist Martin Gore is probably, beyond the music, the most memorable feature of M. They are lovely together, just two dudes rocking out and still having the time of their lives.

For Depeche Mode fans, synth-pop fans, and music fans alike, you’ll find a lot to love here (regardless of how familiar you are with the band and/or their latest album).

Depeche Mode: M, filmed during the band's Mexico City concerts in 2023, does something different from a typical concert documentary: including Spanish-language literature readings in between the on-stage footage. The live performance is good, not great.

Frías does his best to intersect Depeche Mode’s arc with his linear representation of life, but it seems more like an add-on to what is already a powerful musical moment.

For those whose connection with the band faded after their early-’90s U.S. peak, the new material proves just as catchy and enigmatic.
