Mitski has announced a series of music and film double features taking place next week on September 7 in support of her new album, The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We—a week ahead of the record’s official release date on September 15 via Dead Oceans. These events will be presented in movie theaters in eight international cities: Chicago, Dallas, London, Los Angeles, Melbourne, Nashville, Sydney, and New York, plus one planetarium in Tokyo.

Fans are invited to gather in an intimate setting to listen to The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We early and in its entirety, followed by a screening of a film selected by Mitski (who, a press release makes a point of noting, will not be in attendance). The films include Days of Heaven, Desert Hearts, Drugstore Cowboy, and La Strada.
