PMA Films Presents: Sigur Ros: Inni

SIGUR RÓS: INNÍ

75 min. Not Rated. Directed by Vincent Morrisset

Inní is Icelandic post-rock band Sigur Rós’ second live film following 2007’s tour documentary Heima. Whereas that film positioned the group in the context of their Icelandic homeland, Inní focuses purely on the band’s performance. Filmed in a manner that invites both intimacy and claustrophobia, Inní cocoons the viewer in a one-on-one relationship with the band, eschewing the audience for closeness, depicting how it feels for both band and fan to experience Sigur Rós live.

The film’s atmosphere is enhanced by filmmaker Vincent Morisset’s re-filming of the original digital footage on 16mm, which was then re-filmed again, sometimes through prisms and other found objects with the help of godspeed you! black emperor visual collaborator Karl Lemieux, allowing Inní to look and feel like something recovered from the past.
