Synopsis
"Dream Is On" moves between the imaginative world of childhood and the more unsettling territory of adult nightmares. Rather than following a conventional narrative, the video presents a series of surreal, sometimes disquieting images that blur innocence and anxiety. Familiar human situations are transformed by dream logic, creating a visual contrast between youthful fantasy and darker adult fears. The result is an atmosphere-driven clip in which the imagery remains deliberately ambiguous, allowing the electronic track's mood to guide the viewer through its shifting dreamscape.
