A documentary showing the plight of one Metallica fan trying to meet drummer Lars Ulrich will hit UK cinemas in June, it has been confirmed.

Mission To Lars is the work of Tom Spicer. Tom, who suffers from Fragile X Syndrome, was taken to Las Vegas and Los Angeles by his sister Kate and brother William as he attempts to locate Ulrich.

Speaking about the film she helped make, filmaker and journalist Kate Spicer said: "We had this fantasy of hitting the road with Tom and recreating some of the magic of our teenage years cruising around in £100 cars, eating Burger King and listening to heavy metal on the tape deck. We thought it would be fun, bonding. We wanted to do something good for our brother."

All proceeds from the film will go toward Mencap. You can see the Mission To Lars trailer below.
