Sigur Ros: Heima

Dean DeBlois, Director

2007 | 95 |

Sigur Ros, Iceland's most famous musical export since Bjork, is a melodic chamber-rock band whose ethereal recordings combining elements of classical, experimental and minimalist traditions have won ardent fans around the world. Dean DeBlois (LILO & STITCH) directs Heima (meaning "at home" and "homeland"), a captivating documentary in which Sigur Ros performs 13 songs against some of Iceland's most striking and unusual locations, from its ravishingly beautiful wilderness to eerie sites like the interior of an abandoned herring-oil tank.
