Hi! This weekend I watched 127 Hours by the amazing director Danny Boyle.
[SPOILER]
The film is awesome! Danny Boyle established his filming style in a surprising manner. One of my best scenes was the one in the end when Aron Ralston (James Franco), without his right arm already, runs through the desert and finds a family who looks for help and the events will happening with a background triunfant music.
The song played in this scene is "Festival" by the Icelandic post-rock band called Sigur Rós.
[/SPOILER]
The whistling is far away in the end, nine minutes after the song begining. About "Festival" we can read on StereoGum.com that:
The song’s just over nine minutes and split evenly into two movements: the first is straight ( ) style, slowly unfolding, organ-laced celestial coos from Jonsi; the second comes at 4:35 with a very Takk-y “Hoppípolla”–>”Með blóðnasir” transition (see: downstroking bass, surrounding band swells), ending in what sounds like, yes, a festival. In other words: it’s a Sigur Rós song. In other other words: It’s good. I hear a few Hopelandic-y “yu-so”s in there, so my barely educated guess is that this is not the song that is meant to be in English."

Sjóinn skerum frá
Við siglum mastri trú
Seglum þöndum
Við stýrum að í brú
Við siglum í land
Í stórgrýti og sand
Við vöðum í land
Fremdarástand
Já, anskotann
Feginn fann ég þar
Þökkum ákaflega
Í skjóli neyðarhúss
og við sváfum
Stórviðri ofsaði út
