A Secret Understanding
10 artists - including Doug Fishbone, Clare Langan and Jane and Louise Wilson - selected songs from musicians such as Jimi Hendrix, Cat Power, 50 Cent and others to create films that span many different visual approaches and musical styles. An engaging cinema experience for a wide range of audiences.
