Arcade Fire will release a ‘double video’, entitled Money + Love, on March 16th.
Until then, the short film has a teaser clip which can be seen below. It was directed by David Wilson and features a guest appearance by Toni Collette.
“The concept of a double video really appealed to us, we’d always loved songs being put together as A and B sides and these songs seemed perfect together,” Win Butler says. “David has been a great collaborator for us since Reflektor and we were finally able to work with Toni whom we’d been wanting to work with for some time.”
“The ambition and scale of the piece was huge from the outset,” the director adds. “I adore working with Arcade Fire – reacting to their vision and scale is a beautiful thing to creatively respond to. The belief and trust in me from the band made this one of the best experiences of my career.”
“It’s an as-close-to-perfect collaboration that I can think of with me and Win hitting emails backwards and forwards continually over the formation of the script. The connection, communication and enthusiasm from the band on the multiple shoot days led to an extremely tight bond. I’m super excited for this to be out in the world.”
