Watch: Feist Documentary Trailer, 'Look At What The Light Did Now'

Released in 2007, Canadian musician Feist's third solo album, The Reminder, soon took the music industry by storm, when the song "1234," became a surprise hit after it was prominently featured in a commercial for the iPod nano. The album has sold over 1,000,000 copies worldwide and is certified gold in the U.S. In 2008 she she won the coveted "Album of the Year" at the Canadian Juno awards. Not too shabby. The artist is back and, no, it's not a new album, though one is evidently being worked on, but a new documentary called, "Look at What the Light Did Now" that looks like an intimate peak into creativity rather than you're average tour documentary. Here's the synopsis:
"Look at What the Light Did Now" documents the journey of Feist’s Grammy nominated album “The Reminder.” This poetic film pulls back the curtain to reveal intimate partnerships with the people Feist calls her ‘amplifiers’: The photographer who helped her hide within the frame, shadow puppeteers in hockey arenas, an artist who built a thread-radiating mural, the video director who conducted fireworks, the pianist who guided the recording of the album, and other musical and visual collaborators. The film follows Feist and her supporting cast through an impressionistic array of flickering scenery, echoing stadiums, puppet workshops, the red carpet, a crumbling French mansion, definitive concert performances and uncommonly candid interviews. Itself a part of the creative mosaic it portrays, "Look At What The Light Did Now" illuminates the synergy of collaboration, art as magnifying glass, and the power of trust.
