What does Bruce Springsteen mean to you? That\u2019s the basis of a new documentary built around the legendary rocker\u2019s influence on his fans. <\/p>\n

Executive produced by famed auteur Ridley Scott, “Springsteen & I” will feature videos and photographs from fans offering testimony on how the Boss and his music affected their lives. The film will be screened in theaters on July 22.<\/p>\n

In a trailer uploaded to the performer’s YouTube account on Thursday, Springsteen can be seen consoling a fan who just got dumped, singing with an Elvis impersonator and dancing with fans onstage. The teaser also features a few vignettes of some rather rabid fans, including one woman mentioning how she used to hold a picture of the rocker up to her baby and utter \u201cDaddy” (that couldn’t have ended well).<\/p>\n

Directed by music video director Baillie Walsh, the documentary will also include previously unreleased concert footage and his music. Springsteen and label, Columbia Records, are supportive of the film.<\/p>\n

“This beautifully crafted film allows us a unique and powerful insight into the relationship between a recording artist and the impact he has on those who connect so profoundly with his music,” Scott wrote on the film’s website.<\/p>\n

Though the documentary is in the can, producers are asking for photo submissions of fans holding their first Springsteen album. The pictures will be used for the film\u2019s official poster.<\/p>\n

Arts Alliance Media is putting the film in theaters worldwide on July 22, with tickets going on sale June 4.<\/p>\n
