Directed by Tobias Stretch
Concept:
Stretch leads us through a series of mirrored events via an unlikely friendship struck between a disfigured old-man and a little boy. It’s an abstract journey, which strikes a powerfully emotional chord with the song’s existential themes.
While both characters appear to lead lives without companionship, they find solace in each other, as they explore their shared Philadelphia neighbourhood. Plagued by the same anguish, it’s easy for this pair to empathize and enjoy each other’s company: chased from scene to scene by a glowing green jellyfish, their affinity for one another grows, as they learn to understand what the jellyfish has come for.
