Director: Vincent Morisset Iceland/UK/Canada, 2011, 74 minutes; Blu-ray
The music of Iceland�s Sigur R�s fills the cinema, as if reverberating off the walls of some darkly beautiful fjord. The black-and-white footage of front man Jon Birgisson, straining to hit his vocal heights and sawing at his guitar strings with a violin bow, shimmers on the screen. Even before sitting down at the new Sigur Ros concert film, directed by the wonderfully inventive Montreal director Vincent Morisset, who has previously worked with Arcade Fire, you know you�re going to experience something stunning. This is simply one of the most engrossing concert films in recent memory. Morisset�s visual playfulness is perfectly suited to the band. Before going on hiatus in 2010 to pursue other projects, the band members were in top form when Morisset filmed them in London in 2008. It was a peak musically, and visually, with the kind of flashing lightshow that hypnotizes to no end� --The Globe and Mail
