BJÖRK's "Dull Flame of Desire


A new video for Björk's "Dull Flame of Desire" with Antony Hegarty. If the lyrics sound familiar, they are from a translation of a poem by Fyodor Tyutchev as featured in Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker.
"Out of hundreds entrants for the “Innocence” music video competition (which ran on www.bjork.com offering new directors the chance to work with Björk), she chose 3 new directors to collaborate on the “Dull Flame” video.

Björk and Antony performed against green screen in New York then each director was sent the raw footage to edit and create their piece. Christoph Jantos (Berlin) Masahiro Mogari (Tokyo) and Marçal Cuberta Junca (Girona) are the chosen directors. Each director was given their own section of the film, to develop how they wished - on completion the 3 films were edited together in London to make the final music video."
