The lovely Leslie Feist is set to release a documentary film that follows the Canadian singer while she recorded her wonderful Grammy nominated breakthrough album 'The Reminder' as well as the tour that followed.
Entitled 'Look At What The Light Did Now', the film is described as 'A documentary film about Feiest and her collaborators directed by Anthony Seck'. The collaborators in question include Jamie Lidell, Broken Social Scene's Kevin Drew and Chilly Gonzales, who Feist is said to be working with at the moment, hopefully on a new album for 2011.
According to Feist's website, where you can also view the trailer for the film, "This poetic film pulls back the curtain to reveal intimate partnerships with the people Feist calls her ‘amplifiers’: The photographer who helped her hide within the frame, shadow puppeteers in hockey arenas, an artist who built a thread-radiating mural, the video director who conducted fireworks, the pianist who guided the recording of the album, and other musical and visual collaborators. The film follows Feist and her supporting cast through an impressionistic array of flickering scenery, echoing stadiums, puppet workshops, the red carpet, a crumbling French mansion, definitive concert performances and uncommonly candid interviews. Itself a part of the creative mosaic it portrays, Look At What The Light Did Now illuminates the synergy of collaboration, art as magnifying glass, and the power of trust."
'Look At What The Light Did Now' will premiere at Pop Montreal next Wednesday September 29th before heading to the Raindance film festival in London and then a short US tour.
