Heart Of A Dog

Original soundtrack to the 2015 film. Laurie Anderson was recently commissioned by the European TV network Arte to create a feature film-her first in 30 years. Her response was a personal essay entitled Heart of a Dog, a work encompassing joy and heartbreak and remembering and forgetting, at the heart of which is a lament for her late beloved dog Lolabelle. The Nonesuch album is the full audio recording of the film, including all music and spoken text. Heart of a Dog has been shown at the Telluride, Venice, and Toronto Film Festivals to critical praise, with the New York Times calling it a philosophically astute, emotionally charged meditation on death, love, art and dogs.
