AN ISLAND

a film by VINCENT MOON featuring EFTERKLANG

Vincent Moon and Efterklang are proud to announce their film AN
ISLAND. The first teaser of the film is released this week, with the
film’s premiere scheduled for February 2011 (details to follow shortly).

AN ISLAND – Teaser #1:

Three months ago in August 2010, French filmmaker Vincent Moon and
Efterklang’s 8-piece live band met up on an island in the Danish
countryside. The objective was to shoot a film that ran to the same
length as an album, featuring band performances and various musical
experiments and collaborations.

Over an intense period of four days, Efterklang collaborated with more
than 200 local musicians, children and parents, creating unique
performances and interpretations of songs from their Magic Chairs
album (“a miraculous conservatoire pop opus.” MOJO ****). While
documenting the collaborations, Vincent Moon conducted several of his
own filmic and musical experiments, with Efterklang as his dedicated
playmates.
