“Sound of Metal” has Ruben (Riz Ahmed), a heavy metal drummer for Blackgammon, fronted by his girlfriend Lou (Olivia Cooke). They live a carefree rock star life on the road, traveling from gig to gig in their RV.

He can’t make out speech or the rigors of his drumming, and has no choice but to learn how to be deaf at a halfway house.
