Synopsis

The summer of 2006, Sigur Rós, upon ending its world wide tour, the band returned to their hometown and opened several unannounced concerts free of charge in several locations. An old fan of the band and Academy award-winning director of Lilo & Stitch, Dean DeBlois captures their music journey as he follows them with his camera for two weeks. The film scans various locations from gigantic fish storages that are no longer used these days, small parks with no name and farms to villages wiped out underwater by reckless dam constructions, truly exploring the meaning of the film’s Icelandic title, Heima meaning ‘at home’. In addition, the film offers a key to the band’s music secrets as it introduces their daily routines, music practice and interviews explaining their impressions of their concerts, and how they develop their music. But it is the breathtakingly moving experience of their sophisticated and mystical sound combined with the excellent natural Icelandic landscapes, and monumental concert scenes that make Heima stand out from other music documentary masterpieces. This film will be showcased for the first time in HD in Korea. (Chun Jin-su)
