Mitski: The Land
Mitski and Trafalgar Releasing announce the theatrical release of the new concert film Mitski: The Land, out exclusively in cinemas worldwide October 22nd for a limited time. Mitski: The Land converts the magic and majesty of witnessing Mitski’s “highly stylized, brilliantly realized, super cool” (Philadelphia Inquirer) live show onto screen. Filmed over three nights at Atlanta’s Fox Theatre, the film is a thrilling portrayal of what kept hundreds of thousands of fans rapt at venues across the globe.
“Mitski is a visionary artist and a compelling performer and her first concert film is just as special – it’s a privilege to bring this film to cinemas and Mitski fans around the world,” said Marc Allenby, CEO of Trafalgar Releasing. Fans can sign up today at mitskifilm.com for updates including locations and showtimes. Tickets can be purchased beginning Monday, September 15th at mitskifilm.com.
A phenomenal live performer, Mitski brought her “midnight gothic Americana epic,” (NYLON) The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, to the world’s stages in theatrical and daring fashion, presenting as much a spectacle as an expansive live show. Alongside a seven-piece band and with choreography by Monica Mirabile, Mitski used every inch of the stage to her advantage, weaving in and out of the spotlight and shadows. Mitski: The Land captures an artist at the height of her musical powers, bringing a cinematic intimacy to the sweeping live experience, showcasing music from The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We alongside reworkings and reimaginings of songs that color her vast career.
The starkness of the stage design created by Andi Watson evokes the album’s themes of isolation, longing, and the wild beauty of human connection, with visual elements that shift from a striking minimalism to a lush, dreamlike tableau.
Directed by Grant James and mixed by her long-standing producer Patrick Hyland, Mitski: The Land preserves the rich, raw aura of having experienced these shows first-hand, while offering fans the opportunity to remember together or witness Mitski’s magic for the very first time. Mitski: The Land is produced by Moniker Films and Good Harbor Music in association with Working Class Films and Dead Oceans.
