Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

In what could be her greatest musical challenge to date, Icelandic songstress Björk attempts to record an entire album utilizing nothing but human voices as instruments -- with her unique vocal talents serving as the glue that holds the experiment together. Watch her record the album alongside such talented vocalists as Fantômas singer Mike Patton and Japanese beat-boxer Dokaka, and listen as the unique vocalists talk about the making of the album and the experience of working with Björk and the challenges of expanding the perceived limits of the human voice.
