When Youre Strange

Ride the storm that was ‘The Doors’ in this first, feature length documentary which looks at one of America's most "dark and dangerous bands" directed by cutting edge filmmaker Tom DiCillo and narrated by Johnny Depp.

Using only original footage shot between 1966 and 1971 – both unreleased and rarely seen, When You’re Strange opens a window into the band’s world of fame and drugs but always returns to their fierce commitment to their music. Though Jim Morrison’s struggles and excesses shape the film, this is the story of Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore; musicians whose insistence on artistic freedom and refusal to compromise inspired generations.

This captivating film offers a glimpse into one of the most acclaimed rock bands and breaks on through to the world behind The Doors.
