Drawing Restraint 9 to get US release
Twitch reports that Matthew Barney’s collaberation with Björk, Drawing Restraint 9, is to get a (probably very limited) US theatrical release, courtesy of IFC Films.
[Björk] and Barney play visitors aboard a Japanese whaling ship carrying a shape-shifting sculpture of liquid vaseline. Barney and Björk, dressed for reasons best know to themselves in “mammal fur costumes”, are taking part in a tea ceremony below deck when it’s rudely interrupted by a flood of said gunk from above. They do what anyone would do in such circumstances: start breathing through blowholes on the back on their necks and cut off each other’s feet to reveal whale tails.
The film will debut on March 29th at New York’s IFC Center, with regional distribution to follow.
