Synopsis
A woman drifts through a languid summer day beside a swimming pool, appearing absorbed in her own thoughts and surroundings. The video favors mood over narrative, pairing slow, sensual imagery with flashes of surreal visual treatment and rich, sun-drenched color. Her stillness contrasts with the track's restless electronic beat, creating a dreamy portrait of isolation, pleasure and inward reflection. Rather than pushing toward a clear resolution, the clip remains suspended in a hazy state of contemplation.
