Sigur Ros
Directed by Sophie Hunter with cinematography by Oscar winner, James Friend, Ylur was part of the ÁTTA film experiment for Sigur Ros’ new album released 16th June 2023. Sigur Rós reached out to 10 of their favorite artists and filmmakers with a proposal to respond to one track from their new album ÁTTA with complete creative freedom.
“A child in a wasteland of confetti. An untethered and wild dance into an uncertain future. The music spoke to me of something vulnerable and powerful, delicate and vast, visceral and ethereal. It brought me to this figure of a child and to children, the vanguard of our planet’s future. How will they bear the burden we have placed on them? They carry all of our hopes and all of our fears. We will them on, with love, talking courage into their hearts and asking for forgiveness.”
