Synopsis

A snow globe becomes the unlikely centerpiece of a fast-moving chain of encounters. As it passes from one person to another through a series of coincidences, MxPx perform inside the globe, turning the miniature winter scene into a playful stage. The video's whimsical structure contrasts with the song's straightforward message about distance, reassurance, and the uneasy feeling that comes with being apart. Its handmade, surreal premise gives the 1998 punk single a distinctive visual identity.
