If you haven’t heard of the band Sigur Ros, they make some of the most beautiful music. Hailing from the beautiful countrysides of Iceland, their music itself provokes visual imagery. Listening to their music is like a film for the ears.

The band recently did a small unannounced tour around Iceland, playing small towns all over the country, as a way to give back to their fans. “Heima” showcases footage captured from their Iceland tour, intimate documentary-style interviews with the band members and absolutely stunning landscape photography from all over Iceland.

The nature and landscape photography is enough reason to watch the film. After watching the 1080p HD Trailer, I have no doubt you will want to see it.

StudioDaily did an insightful interview with Director Dean DeBlois on which cameras they used, how they did camera setups for the concert and about what he did to save the initial idea from failure.

The DVD is officially available on December 4, 2007. I would gladly post a review of it, but it’s on my Christmas List so I’m not allowed to buy it or watch it yet :)  But expect a review of it when I receive it.
