Things usually mentioned when discussing rock band Sigur
Rós: Iceland, glaciers, gorgeousness, elves, cinematic
catharsis. Things depicted in the Sigur Rós documentary
Heima: all of the above, including the scruffy, cute,
elfish band members. A fusion of hardcore nature-porn and
sublime, guitar-driven symphonies, Heima (Icelandic for “home”)
follows Sigur Rós through a handful of shows in their native
country with a soundtrack that is more beautiful than a Polaroid of
god. (Metro Cinemas, 4500 Ninth Ave, www.landmarktheatres.com/tickets.
