Leigh Brooks’ Hate To Love: Nickelback documentary is hitting cinemas worldwide for two nights only.
The docu, which made its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, will be arriving in theaters on March 27 and March 30 for a series of limited screenings. Hate To Love explores the rise of Nickelback and the personal effects of the “online vitriol” the band has received over the years — all the white also celebrating the loyalty of the band’s fans. “The film also unveils the rock groups decision to return after a 5-year break with a new record and a hugely successful sold-out tour, finding themselves riding a sudden wave of online love that has introduced their music to an army of new fans and audiences worldwide,” the press release reads.
“Hate To Love: Nickelback offers fans and audiences 90-minutes of translucence – an unvarnished and emotionally revealing look into the career of one of the world’s biggest rock bands. Combining never-before-seen archival footage, concert footage, interviews and enthusiastic celebrity advocates like actor Ryan Reynolds and Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan, Nickelback’s Chad Kroeger, Ryan Peake, Mike Kroeger, and Daniel Adair don’t shy away from the band’s topsy-turvy legacy as they share compelling and real-life stories alongside life-changing moments that have never-before been divulged publicly.”
“We are very excited to finally bring this film to theatres this Spring. It’s been a long road to get this project across the finish line and we must thank Ben Jones and Leigh Brooks for all of their hard work,” Nickelback shared in a statement. “We hope everyone enjoys our story, fans, friends or otherwise.”
Tickets and the list of cinemas are available on the official documentary website starting February 22.
