The Showroom has a couple of very interesting music documentaries/films coming up in December.
Turning with Q&A – Showroom – 3rd November
In 2006 Antony and the Johnsons and Charles Atlas took their collaborative performance ‘Turning’ to major cities across Europe. This documentary film explores the heart of that performance; focussing on the 13 remarkable women who performed on stage. There will be a Q&A with director Charles Atlas after the screening.

Sigur Rós: Valtari Film Experiment – Showroom – 9th December
Sigur Rós have given a dozen film makers the same modest budget and asked them to create whatever comes into their head when they listen to songs from the band’s new album Valtari. The idea is to bypass the usual artistic approval process and allow people utmost creative freedom.
The weekend of December 7th- 9th, a Valtari Film Experiment programme collects at least 17 commissioned “official” and fan-created short films created to coincide with their new album Valtari. The programme will screen on all seven continents.
