FKA twigs: Soundtrack 7

Film about the creation of twigs's abstract autobiographical piece Soundtrack 7, shot for the Manchester International Festival and emphasising the grit and physicality of dance.

Shot on location for the Manchester International Festival, this film shows the work twigs created and filmed one per day during her week-long residency. Conceptualized as an abstract autobiographical piece, Soundtrack 7 includes performances set to How's That, Ultraviolet, and Good to Love among others, and is bound together by a striking, repeated recitation of Thomas Wyatt's poem I Find No Peace (an excerpt from which opened twigs's critically acclaimed LP1). Emphasising the grit and physicality of dance, twigs describes her latest project as 'flesh, sweat, feeling, muscle, and a live movement, no air brushing, no frills.'.
