Nick Cave is requesting footage from fans for an upcoming collaborative film to accompany his recent ‘Seven Psalms’ project.Released last month, the collection comprises seven spoken word cuts set to music that was created in collaboration with Warren Ellis as well as a concluding 12-minute piece, ‘Psalm Instrumental’.The record, which was produced by Cave alongside Luis Almau, came together during the sessions for Nick Cave & Warren Ellis‘ 2021 studio album ‘Carnage’.“While in lockdown I wrote a number of psalms, or small, sacred songs—one a day for a week,” Nick Cave explained in a statement.“The seven psalms are presented as one long meditation—on faith, rage, love, grief, mercy, sex and praise.

A veiled, contemplative offering borne of an uncertain time. I hope you like it.”Now, Cave is looking to collect a range of fan-shot footage for a collaborative ‘Seven Psalms’ film that will serve as “a kind of spiritual portrait of the world at this time”.

A press release described the project as “an ambitious idea with a small budget”.The musician has asked for short phone clips (two minutes in length or less) that “mean something” to the fan, such as “selfie portraits, miracles of nature and natural disaster, the sacred and profane”.“It could be footage of the person you love, video you shot at a protest, or something ordinary that you find beautiful.

Themes could be mercy, anger, splendour, grief, solitude, yearning, revelation [or] glory.”Those who want to contribute to the ‘Seven Psalms’ film are required to submit their videos to psalms@nickcave.com before July 26.
