This is a clip from a short-film called
VI DER BLEV TILBAGE/ WE WHO STAYED BEHIND
by Martin de Thurah, 2008
10-year-old Adam is one of the few kids left behind after all the grown-ups have succumb to hopelessness and abandoned the city, leaving it in a state of disarray. Adam tries to make sense of it all, along with his friend Ida. But soon she too is struck by the same symptom of disillusion: Her blood turns gray, her look is empty, and she sets off from the city. Determined to put a stop to this madness and bring Ida back to life, Adam leads the children in their struggle to make the city a place worth living in once again.
Marie Fisker composed the song "I Love You So" for the shot film "Vi Der Blev Tilbage" by Martin De Thurah. All recordings made with manoj Ramdas
The film is nominated at VENEDIG filmfestival '08 and BUSTER filmfestival '08.
Pictures from Trentemøller show at Roskilde Festival 2009.
I attended as a guest on stage singing "Sycamore Feeling" and "Copenhagen Love" with Steen Jørgensen. Other guest on stage were Josephine phillip, Michael simpson, Henrik Vibskov, Doris Chrysler, Ane Trolle, Jakob Høyer, Lisbeth Fritze.
Marie Fisker comes from Copenhagen, Denmark. Her lo-fi-vintage music is a blend of blues, country and rock. A bitter sweet almost David Lynch alike imaginary expression. Marie has kept instrumentation simple but very effective; everything's carefully slotted in its place to just punctuate and enhance her silky, sultry voice.
In 2004 she established a recording studio in the backyard of an old house in the center of Copenhagen. While writing songs she recorded and invited musicians to join her in the studio. As developing the musical sound, this will be a debut album produced by herself and the drummer Jakob Hoyer (The Raveonettes).
She played at Roskilde Festival '05. Performed in London at Barfly and The Social among others. She was awarded a price of honor as The New Upcoming Artist 2005 given by Carlsberg. As part of a saturday night program portraying the great legend Johnny Cash on DR2 danish national tv, she performed a song with Kira Skov. Kira Skov and Marie Fisker has also been touring denmark as a duo. Recorded "Coepenhagen" by SODS with Steen Jorgensen for Mads Nørgaard '07 fasion show. She made 2 songs for the shot-films "New Love" by Laurence Coriat and Lœrke Vindahl and "Vi Der Blev Tilbage" by Martin De Thurah.

Anmeldelser:
****** Dr.dk : Anya Mathilde Poulsen
"Nogle gange sker det, at man sendes fuldstændigt til tælling af en plade og nærmest ikke kan finde ord. Det er fantastisk, når det sker, især når det kommer fra en stort set ubeskrevet kant, og debutalbummet fra Marie Fisker er en af den slags plader.
Tonen på 'Ghost of Love' er tidløs, udtrykket mesterligt og klangen et uimodståeligt bevis for, at man ikke behøver være vokset op på den anden side af Atlanten for at have country'ens blå tone helt inde under sin hud."
******Aoa.dk : Jesper Graarskjœr
"Nogle plader er så insisterende i deres udtryk og stemning, at de nærmest af sig selv finder tilbage til afspilleren, igen og igen, fordi de rammer en genkendelig tone i livet."
***** Ekstra bladet: Henrik Queitsch
"Det lœnge ventede debutalbum fra Marie Fisker bliver ved med at vokse og nœgter at slippe èn igen"

Vi har lige nu plads til en ny Rumkammerat - hjælp os med at finde den helt rigtige!
En Rumkammerat skal både være selvstændig og have lyst til at lave
fælles projekter. For eksempel er de fleste af os med til at lave den
årlige Urban Treasure Hunt, og fire af os skiftes til at lave
udstillinger i galleriet.
Så kender du nogen der kan bidrage med noget nyt eller ekstra til det
vi allerede kan - og som er initiativrig, ambitiøs og social - så peg
dem i vores retning.
