A number of different film directors in specific countries were asked to chose a song from the album and then create a short piece based on what the idea of "home" means to them. The resulting films have so far been made in Brazil, New Zealand, Thailand, England, Scotland, India, Portugal, France and the US.
The films feature numerous different stories including a dump site in Rio, a Mumbai taxi-cab, the rugged coast of New Zealand's South Island, a Thai boxing ring and a picturesque Portuguese fishing village.
"I wanted every song to have its own video or film to represent the album as a whole," explains Dido. "I love seeing how someone else might interpret a song that is so specific and personal to me. It's an experiment I've been really enjoying, watching the songs be turned on their heads by these beautiful emotional visual stories that are coming out of it."
