- The ultimate goal of the film is to explain why the subculture of Depeche Mode came into being.
Reaching the final concept took me a long time. I had many ideas while working on the movie.
But let me start from the beginning.
The shooting process started in August 2009 and ended in November 2010. What is characteristic and interesting is that all the footage was made in Łódź. Eventually I gathered several hours of material that I had to cope with.
The inspiration for the movie came to me after I heard that Depeche Mode would play in Łódź. It was a huge news! Never before had such a famous band played in our city. I was aware of the fact that there's a huge group of Depeche Mode fans in Łódź. I decided to meet with them and do some interviews. I didn't know how the fans would react. My worries were needless as they turned out to be very open to my ideas.
Initially, the general idea of the movie was completely different. I wanted to portray the fans. It seemed relatively easy, but it was not!
While working on the movie I was given a unique chance of talking to people who worked with the band. Of course this affected the initial concept of the movie and everything started to be complicated. How to combine these two worlds? Figuring out how to do this was a long process ;)
The first problem that I had to overcome while working on the movie was resigning from the music of Depeche Mode as a soundtrack. But how to depict the subculture of Depeche Mode fans without playing a single note of the band?
But then I met Maciej Werk, who creates music.
We didn't want to create a soundtrack imitating the music of Depeche Mode. We aimed for something new that would fit in terms of style.
Another troublesome issue was the inability of showing the members of the band. But how to depict the fans without showing their beloved band? This problem has also been solved, as the former member of the band, Alan Wilder came to Łódź. He agreed for a long interview. These are only two examples of numerous other issues that I had to consider.
The Fan was fully noncommercial project without any budget. That is why I had to find people eager to do things for free. Let me thank all of you!
I appreciate a great reception of all the fans. I would like to thank all the people who were filmed and apologize those who talked with me and were not included in the final version of the movie. Those decisions were not easy, believe me.
The movie is nearly half an hour long. Probably some of you will say that it's too short or that there is too little footage with the fans. Definitely The hardest thing was resigning from successive fragments and cutting out the pieces of all those interesting conversations. It was a result of the form and the concept that I have chosen. The main purpose of the movie was to explain the reasons behind the emergence of Depeche Mode subculture.
Watch the movie and judge for yourself if I made it.

I have a tremendous amount of respect for Alan. What an interesting human.
What a great documentry. As an outsider looking in (I'm English) it gives a real insight to the fan culture in Poland surrounding this band. I've been to see Depeche in Poland many times (Warsaw, Lodz, Katowice) also Dave Gahan solo. For me the shows are always much more passionate from an audience perspective than the English shows on those same tours. To me though, the highlights of these frequent trips to Poland are the after parties and the fans and friends I see there.
Thank you very much.
Congrats! Very good job! It couldn´t be better! :) Amusing.. being a fan, having an idol.. it´s so illusory.. i mean.. 4 a second u think of them as a hero, untouchable, so far from you.. but at the same they really can change a somebody else´s life (in a good way), inspire, unite wonderful people (from everywhere).. i can say my devotee friends and i are like a family indeed! Unbelievable! Can´t explain.. Best from Rio, Brazil. x
Co za wspaniały dokumentalny. Jako człowiek z zewnątrz, patrząc w (mam angielski) daje rzeczywisty wgląd w kulturę wentylatora Polska wokół tego zespołu. Byłem zobaczyć Depeche w Polska wiele razy (Warszawa, Łódź, Katowice) również Dave Gahan solo. Dla mnie koncerty są zawsze o wiele bardziej namiętny z perspektywy publiczności niż angielski wskazuje na te same wycieczki. Dla mnie jednak, podkreśla te częste wyjazdy do Polska są po stron i fanów i przyjaciół tam widzę.
Miło się słucha Wildera ,to mądry i wielce utalentowany muzyk
To prawda, dzięki!
Cudownie było zobaczyć tak ciekawy i pełen znaczących dla DM ludzi materiał. Nic, tylko podziękować za nakręcenie takiego filmu i oby pojawiało się ich jeszcze więcej:)
Wow, Devotees can see a lot of passion and hard work was put into this project. Blows my mind you got to interview Alan Wilder and Gareth Jones--really insightful, I could listen to them forever. Thanks for sharing, fantastic job.
Thank you very much!
Worth adding more 'tags' to this film.....let more people watch it.....

co to za muza na początku?
Maciej Werk. Jest w napisach :)
@@grzegorzradziejewski6114 super, po 8 latach .To ,ze Werk to jasne ale utwor jaki ?
@@underhand77 to jedna z wielu krótkich kompozycji Maćka z jakimś roboczym tytułem. Dostałem od niego kilkadziesiąt tego typu "muzyk" do wykorzystania w filmie. Więc nie jest to jakiś konkretny utwór który kiedyś wejdzie na płytę.
Ok, dzięki
Цhen will with Russian subtitles?!
Sorry but no.
DM ma dusze.
