Hi film lovers.

Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere is a quietly powerful and deeply introspective biographical drama that captures a defining moment in the life of one of music’s most iconic figures. Rather than charting a rise-to-fame narrative, the film focuses on Bruce Springsteen at a crossroads in the early 1980s — already successful, yet searching for something more honest and enduring.

Retreating from the pressures of fame, Springsteen isolates himself in a modest New Jersey house, transforming a bedroom into a makeshift recording studio. There, armed with little more than a guitar and a four-track recorder, he begins work on what will become Nebraska — a stark, haunting album that defies commercial expectations.

As he writes, memories of his upbringing resurface, particularly his complicated relationship with his father, whose struggles cast a long shadow over his life and music. The film weaves together past and present, revealing how personal history shapes artistic expression.

With a restrained central performance and an emphasis on mood over spectacle, Deliver Me from Nowhere becomes less a conventional music biopic and more a meditation on creativity, identity, and isolation. It explores what it means to strip everything back — to risk failure in pursuit of something real.

Atmospheric, reflective, and deeply human, the film offers a compelling portrait of an artist confronting himself — and finding, in the process, a voice that would resonate far beyond the confines of a single room.

As usual, bar, ice creams, teas and coffees at the start and at the interval. 

See you there.
