Yungblud unveils documentary
Trafalgar Releasing
The feature-length film is a love letter to Berlin
Yungblud, Are You Ready, Boy?, the new documentary film featuring the globally recognized British artist Yungblud, will receive its global theatrical release with screenings on August 20 and 24, courtesy of Trafalgar Releasing. Tickets go on sale on July 17th.
The feature-length documentary, directed by three-time Grammy Award-nominated, Emmy and BAFTA-winning filmmaker Paul Dugdale (Adele: One Night Only, Elton John Live: Farewell From Dodger Stadium) was shot at the legendary Hansa Studios Building in Berlin, the birthplace of David Bowie’s Heroes, U2’s Achtung Baby! and countless other iconic albums.
A personal journey of change, confidence and rock-and-roll chaos, set against a city that has always celebrated counterculture and creativity, the film is a revealing and uncompromising documentary about a generational artist finding his own voice.
Presented in black and white and color, including stunning sequences shot in 16 mm, the two-hour-long documentary shows Yungblud at a pivotal moment in his career. The film follows the artist as he relocates to the historic Berlin studio with his band to record live performances of tracks from his new album, Idols, for the first time. His most personal record to date, Idols, was released in June 2025 to critical acclaim, becoming Yungblud’s third consecutive No. 1 album in the UK. With cameras rolling throughout the entire process and no live audience present, the project removes any artifice, presenting a truthful and unapologetic behind-the-scenes look at the creative process and the performances in its purest form, highlighting the intimate relationships and dynamics between Dom, the band and the music.
"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. Berlin has always radiated complete, unfiltered truth. Every time I’ve visited Hansa Studios, it’s just f*cking iconic," Yungblud shares. "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?'"
Produced by B.R.A.T Productions in association with Aldgate Pictures, the film offers a never-before-seen insight into Yungblud’s creative process, including its trials and tribulations, against the backdrop of a city steeped in cultural history.
The film will screen in 30 countries across the globe, including 150 UK cinemas.
