At last! Björk releases her Andrew Thomas Huang-directed Black Lake video

Date
11 June 2015

It’s been a long old wait, but three months after dropping the trailer, Bjork has finally released her Andrew Thomas Huang-directed short film for Black Lake in full on her YouTube channel. The ten minute film was commissioned by MOMA as part of her retrospective which opened this spring, and focuses on the pain of heartbreak, in accordance with the much of new album Vulnicura, which was written following her split with Matthew Barney. Created in collaboration with the 3D design firm Autodesk, the film is an ethereal but powerfully theatrical offering, and sees Björk walking barefoot through Icelandic caves, ravines and moss fields.
