The concept of coming home
is one that has become a part of our lives in these times when we are at the
pinnacle of human migratory journeys. Wherever we move, for whatever reasons
that may be, there is always that place called home. The place we were born or
has a certain tie beyond rationale or emotions. We all have gone back to that
home every now and then, some people more often than others.
In the beautifully edited
and crafted documentary ‘Heima’, the band Sigur Ros has captured their home
coming in a special way that is true to the spirit of the band as well as Iceland - the country they call home. Visually stunning and hauntingly pulsating it is their special
ode to their homeland.
Meanwhile in her new video called ‘Wanderlust’ the other Icelandic crooner Bjork has her own journey of the very act of coming into this world. Not since her ‘Human Condition’ video have we seen anything of this magnitude.
Icelandic storytelling at
its best.
