Julie Fowlis - ‘A’ phiuthrag ’sa phiuthar’ (O sister, beloved sister) The Official Video

As promised, here is a newly commissioned animation we have been working on to the opening track of alterum. The song ‘A’ phiuthrag ’sa phiuthar’ (O sister, beloved sister) tells the powerful traditional story of two sisters - one of whom is stolen away by the ‘sìthichean’ or fairy-people. Her sister searches in vain for her. This moving animation was made by two talented artists, Eleonore Dambre and Dima Nowarah in collaboration with Julie. Please check out their work at:
