Synopsis
A solitary woman drifts through a strange, dreamlike landscape where familiar spaces become increasingly uncanny. Moving between intimate close-ups, shadowy interiors, and surreal encounters with masked figures, she appears caught between disorientation and surrender. The video favors atmosphere over a literal storyline, using slow movement, unusual costumes, and hazy imagery to mirror the song's feeling of emotional uncertainty. Rather than showing someone confidently finding a destination, it presents being lost as a suspended, hypnotic state.
