The Water is a song by Feist, but now also a short film by Broken Social Scene's Kevin Drew. It stars Feist, Cillian Murphy and David Fox, and tells a chilling fairy tale, one which slowly (and quietly) thaws despite its snowy backdrop. You can watch the video here.
Pitchfork Media flew to Canada recently for an interview with Kevin and Leslie. You can find a link to this interview, as well as one with Cillian Murphy, all from this page.

This is so awesome! I'm glad that Feist and Kevin Drew worked on it together.
It's a good video, and the fact that noone spoke made it pretty chilling-It went along with The Water.

But I found it here, and it still works:

here's something I really don't understand, I'm a huge fan of feist and have been for years I've seen her live about six times but recently the last few shows I've been at they won't allow cameras into the concerts; security said it was "by bands request" but they're not allowing cameras why do they post a fan photos archive?

OMG!!, not my angel!!! It felt like the air was being sucked out of my lungs.I guess that is to Kevin Drew's credit as well, he had the good sense to cast someone that carried that kind of clout.

Hey Leslie, I saw some videos on youtube of the Dark Was The Night concert... amazing.
Train Song was beautiful and so was Águas de Março. You should play it when you come to Brazil!

First of all, I know that my English is not good ... I am Brazilian but try to express my comment: I say to you my dear FIEST, I'm love your work, your style and I ask God to bless you more each day and your talent, and wish much success to you, maybe one day I can watch his show, for now, but I'm satisfied with the videos.
The original script below:
Antes de mais nada, vou informando de que meu inglês não é nada bom... Sou brasileiro mas tentarei expressar meu comentário: Digo à você minha querida FIEST que adorei conhecer sua obra, o seu estilo e peço a DEUS te abençoe a cada dia mais o seu talento, e desejo muito sucesso para você, quem sabe um dia eu possa assistir ao seu show, mas por enquanto terei de me contentar com os videos.

Leslie!! Please Please come to Toronto soon, I will pay any amount of money to see you play a great concert.

I purchased the Reminder album and I'm listening to it now.
Just watched the 'Water' video online.
Such a wealth of compelling and soul searching content.
It causes me to search the universe on spiritual wings, unfettered by my physical bounds.
An amazing result caused by a talented artist.
Good fortune to you, and please create more music for my collection.

ALL WE NEED IS YOU!
