INNI
INNI is a persuasive account of one of the most celebrated and influential rock bands of recent years.
The critically acclaimed documentary on Sigur Ros, was filmed during a 2008 performance at the Alexandra Palace in London using high-definition video, later transferred to 16-millimeter film, Interweaving archive material from the band’s first ten years with the sometimes gossamer light, sometimes punishingly intense, concert footage, it looks and feels like something recovered from the past.
INNI opened at the Venice Festival (Venice Days). It was the opening film at RIFF and has been screened at CPH:DOX, VIFF and the festivals of Helsinki, Rio, Istanbul, Taipei, Hawaii, Oslo and Dubai.

Sleeping Sickness
The interactive music video “Sleeping Sickness”, by Canadian group City and Colour, provides an intriguing perspective on the topic of space. By expounding on the still new interactive music video concept , director Vincent Morisset gives the viewer the freedom to re-shape spacial boundaries. This forces new questions: Does seeing the “greater” narrative impact individual ones? Shift the meaning? What do we choose to see? Choose to ignore?
While the visual narrative is both creative and vast, it does not, or should not, minimise the centrality of the song itself. Coming from a seemingly isolated space, Dallas Green tells the story of a “breaking down” moment.

BLA BLA
An interactive tale, directed by Vincent Morisset. In this animated film meets picture book, you participate in the story. The project in itself explores the grammar of a new medium, using xerography, drawing on paper, ActionScript-generated animations, puppet stop-motion combined with real-time 3D mapping.
The six chapters in the story depict different aspects of human communication, such as learning a language, making small talk, expressing emotions. As part of the creative process for BLA BLA, Morisset extensively researched interactive narrative to define a new grammar of non-linear editing. BLA BLA thus offers a new vision of communication in the wider sense, of how our natural behaviours and interactions with others play out in the world.
BLA BLA won the Innovation prize at the New Film Festival of Montreal in fall 2011.
