Björk: Biophilia Live is a concert film recorded live at London's Alexandra Palace in September 2013. The film features Björk and her band performing each song on her eighth studio album Biophilia, and reworked versions of classic songs from her extraordinary catalogue, all to the backdrop of animation by top designers and science and nature archive footage. Clare Stewart, BFI London Film Festival Director, comments:
"Under the curatorship of BFI Head of Events and Production, Stuart Brown, our Sonic cinema programme in both LFF and year-round at BFI Southbank presents an exceptional selection of screenings and events that revel in the connection between music and film. Björk is a true innovator, collaborating with exceptional filmmakers and artists to produce intoxicating work at the intersection of music and film. We are delighted to be welcoming her, along with Peter Strickland and Nick Fenton, to the BFI London Film Festival's UK premiere."
The Festival will take place from 8-19 October 2014 in venues across London. The full programme will be announced on Wednesday 3 September.
