Quand Le Grenier Pris Feu

Synopsis>>

A music video about an unfortunate encounter between pigeons and various people, each experiencing their own reality.

Director´s Note>>

I was inspired by individuals I observed on the Berlin S-Bahn and U-Bahn, who would fall asleep between stops. The meaning behind the pigeons and the encounter is open to interpretation, much like the moods of the sleeping passengers. I anticipate that different viewers may perceive it in different ways. The video took about four months to produce, with Berlin and Paris serving as the primary locations, though there were some exceptions.

"Quand le grenier aura pris feuis" is taken off 'La grande accumulation', an album by Anadol & Marie Klock. Released on Pingipung, Nov 1 2024
