filmmakingWatch this effing gorgeous high res trailer for an upcoming documentary about ethereal emoti-rockers, Sigur Rós. The trailer is itself a beautiful work of art.

Here are a couple of example screen grabs of shots that seem to be intentional visual counterpoints...




They're perhaps more obvious in the full res version. Watch the trailer here (it's a whopper at 57 MB, but worth the download time).
