Broken Bells have shared a preview (or prologue) to their forthcoming short film titled—like their next album—After the Disco.

Part One, called "Angel and the Fool," offers a glimpse of the film, which is based on a story by Brian Burton (aka Danger Mouse), one of half of the band alongside The Shins' James Mercer.

The film stars Anton Yelchin and Kate Mara, and Part One can be seen below. It was directed by Jacob Gentry.

As we previously reported, the album is due sometime in January.
