简介：ollowing the release of their fourth album ‘Piramida’, Efterklang presents ‘The Ghost Of Piramida’, a film by Danish director Andreas Koefoed, that documents the Danish trio’s visit to the abandoned Russian mining town Piramida on Spitsbergen.
Accompanied by their taciturn and not visibly impressed Russian polar bear guard, the group goes on a treasure hunt in the empty buildings of the ghost town, while the narrator, the former Piramida-citizen Alexander, takes us back to a bygone era, when Piramida flourished and the immigrant Russian miners and their families lived in a Soviet parallel society far from the brutal reality of their homeland.
‘The Ghost Of Piramida’ had its offical world premiere November 18th 2012 at IDFA in Amsterdam. Same month it was screened at CPH:DOX in Copenhagen. The film was nominated in the Best Music Documentary category at both festivals. For news on additional screenings please see the Screenings Calendar.
