blur: To the End

Synopsis

A new feature-length documentary depicting the extraordinary and emotional return of blur, captured across a year in which the band made a surprise return with their first record in 8 years, the critically acclaimed #1 album ‘The Ballad of Darren’. The film follows the unique relationship of four friends and band mates of over three decades - Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree - as they come together to record 10 new songs ahead of their sold-out, first ever shows at London’s Wembley Stadium in 2023.
