Björk: Biophilia Live was directed by Nick Fenton and Peter Strickland and is being touted as an audiovisual experience, combining concert footage from a 2013 performance at London’s Alexandria Palace with animation sequences and nature shots.

‘biophilia live’ is a concert film by nick fenton and peter strickland that captures the human element of björk’s multi-disciplinary multimedia project: biophilia. recorded live at björk’s show at london’s alexandra palace in 2013, the film features björk and her band performing every song on ‘biophilia’ and more using a broad variety of instruments – some digital, some traditional and some completely unclassifiable. the film has already been hailed as ” a captivating record of an artist in full command of her idiosyncratic powers” (variety) and ” an imaginative stand-alone artwork” (hollywood reporter) and is a vital piece of the grand mosaic that is ‘biophilia.’
