Grace Jones - Bloodlight and Bami DVD

Grace Jones: Bloodlight & Bami is an electrifying journey through the performance, private and public worlds of pop cultural icon Grace Jones.Larger than life, fierce and androgynous Grace Jones plays all these parts. Yet here we discover her as lover, daughter, mother, sister and even grandmother, as she submits herself to our gaze and allows us to understand what constitutes her mask.

The film includes unique performances of her iconic hits Slave To The Rhythm and Pull Up To The Bumper as well as more recent autobiographical tracks, Williams Blood, This Is and Hurricane.

These personal songs link to the films narrative that follows Grace on a holiday road trip across her native Jamaica.This is a Grace we have not seen before, someone who reminds us of what it is to dare to be truly alive. In all her apparent contradictions,

Grace Jones may appear an exception, but she is also a point of identification: she is the exception that proves the rule.Director Sophie Fiennes (Over Your Cities Grass Will Grow) creates a powerful cinematic experience, contrasting musical sequences with intimate personal footage and reaching beyond the iconic mask.
