A fascinating insight into the making of Arcade Fire’s international #1 album Reflektor, the film recontextualizes the album experience, transporting the viewer into a kaleidoscopic sonic and visual landscape. It charts the band’s creative journey as they lay foundations for the album in Jamaica, record in Montreal and play an impromptu gig at a Haitian hotel on the first night of Carnival, before bringing their breath-taking live show to packed arenas in Los Angeles and London.

 

Reviews

A fantastic fever dream montage of outtakes, studio footage, concert clips, intimate interviews, fan portraits and mesmeric hallucinations. As singer Régine Chassagne says, music should be 'like a diamond with a million cuts in it', and this film is the world put through the magnificent prism of Arcade Fire. - Gig Wise
