You may remember that Jonny was doing the soundtrack for a series on Channel 4 in the UK. Well, we have some details for you! The series is called “Bodysong” and here is a description of it from the official website:
A movie that tells the story of an archetypal human life using images taken from All around the World and The Last 100 Years of Cinema.
The editing, music, and the mythic narrative arc of the material is designed to take the viewer on a roller coaster tour of the human body and life cycle. Every possible depiction of the human life from microscopic medical to portraits and newsreels, from births to deaths, are cut to a powerful music track by Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead to create a powerful and highly emotional film.
The film’s power derives from the force of numbers; each face, each person, each body, each glimpse of anatomy, is both abstracted and dignified by being part of a huge flow, a torrent of humanity larger than any of us can conceive.
Written and Directed by Simon Pummell.
Produced by Janine Marmot.
FilmFour and The Film Council present a Hot Property Production.
