===2007: ''Heima'' and ''Hvarf/Heim''=== {{Main|Heima|Hvarf/Heim}} [[File:Sigur Rós, Jónsi and Goggi.jpg|thumb|At [[UCLA]] in 2008, playing an acoustic set before screening ''Heima'']] In August 2007, a limited DVD+CD edition of the 2002 soundtrack to the documentary ''[[Hlemmur (film)|Hlemmur]]'' was released. ''[[Hvarf/Heim]]'' was released on 5 November (6 November in the U.S.), a [[double album|double]] compilation album containing studio versions of previously unreleased songs — "Salka", "Hljómalind" (formerly known as "Rokklagið"), "Í Gær" and "Von" on ''Hvarf'', and acoustic studio versions of the songs: "Samskeyti", "Starálfur", "Vaka", "Ágætis Byrjun", "Heysátan" and "Von", on ''Heim''. On the same day (20 November in the U.S.) ''[[Heima]]'', a live DVD of the previous summer's Iceland tour, was released. Just prior to the release of ''[[Hvarf/Heim]]'', on 29 October, a single named "[[Hljómalind]]" was released. The 2007 feature-length documentary from Sigur Rós's summer tour in Iceland, which occurred in 2006, attempts to shed light on the band's homeland. Therefore, the film is called "[[Heima]]", which means "at home". In the movie, the band members express their interpretation of "Iceland". The film revolves around three main elements; the band playing live, the Icelandic nature shaping their music, along with interviews, where they tell the viewers what it was like to play at home in addition to sharing their overall experience of the tour. To promote their film ''Heima'', the band scheduled a series of premiere screenings throughout the world, featuring a short acoustic set before the film and a question-and-answer session afterwards.
