Lisa Gerrard Double Feature:

SANCTUARY: LISA GERRARD, 2006, Milan Entertainment, 90 min. An intimate portrait of the co-lead singer of Dead Can Dance featuring masterful performances by co-lead singer Brendan Perry, and interviews with Perry, actor Russell Crowe, director Michael Mann, composer Hans Zimmer and more. Directed and produced by Clive Collier, it illustrates the essence of Lisa’s music; her singing as strong spiritual expression and her connection with nature. The documentary film talks about the different components of Lisa’s career: her beginnings with the formation of the Dead Can Dance group with Brendan Perry in the 1980’s, her film and solo careers (including her musical contributions to movies like THE INSIDER, ALI, WHALE RIDER and GLADIATOR), the reformation of Dead Can Dance for a world tour in 2005, and aspects of her family life which support and influence her work.

DEAD CAN DANCE: TOWARD THE WITHIN, 2004, Magidson Films, 78 min. Director Mark Magidson (producer of BARAKA) helmed this ecstatic, trance-inducing concert film of the famed band performing their unusual blend of Celtic folk and New Age Gothic music at Santa Monica’s now-gone Mayfair Theatre. Short bursts of interview footage with Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry give insight into the group’s influences, spiritual affinities and musical direction. "…Magidson’s film is a welcome introduction to the 4AD Records flagship group, who mix Celtic madrigals and an unclassifiable brand of neo-Gothic worldbeat with the haunting voices of co-founders Perry and Gerrard." – Mark Savlov, The Austin Chronicle
