Experimental/Short
Three time periods, one connection: Blood. The central characters are a woman and her car. The 28-minute film follows her in a strange ritual that climaxes in a collision between past and future, crashing through the gateway to parallel worlds in the same forest. A fantasy world where a Viking heart, a car crash and a bleeding forest connect. Using music rather than dialogue, the film tells a universal tale in striking optics. Borrowed from mythology, the Hunt for the Heart is the eternal quest envisioned in OOOM. Conceived by musician Melissa Auf der Maur (Hole / Smashing Pumpkins) and birthed by Filmmaker Tony Stone (Severed Ways: The Norse Discovery of America) this mini epic is proudly self-produced and shot in HD fuelled by solar power. Melissa Auf Der Maur in attendance!
Short
On an island on top of the earth, a boy surrounded by boats dreams a dream... what follows is a film poem that reflects spending 3 weeks in 2008 on tour with one of the worlds most enigmatic bands, Sigur Ros. Rather than the epic nature of their previous film 'Heima', 'Vid Spilum Endalaust' (which translates as 'we play endlessly') is an almost abstract portrait of the band. Voices of fans, stylists and other people around the band drift in and out of the soundtrack. Shot on Super 8 and developed by hand in the directors bathroom, this is less a tour film than a distillation of intimate moments and beautiful fragments reflecting the playful and spontaneous (if somewhat shy!) nature of the band.
