Sound of Metal

A metal drummer’s world changes when he begins losing his hearing. As his career, relationship, and recovery from addiction come under pressure, he enters a supportive community and must confront whether adapting to a new way of life means letting go of the identity he once depended on.

My take

You’ll like this if you prefer emotionally intense, grounded character dramas about music, identity, and recovery; Not for you if you want a fast-paced musical like Whiplash or a neatly resolved ending.
