Synopsis
Set in a post-apocalyptic landscape strewn with the remains of a vanished technological age, the video follows a tribe of children living by their own colorful customs. They move through the wreckage as they perform rituals, play, work, and carry out the routines of daily life. The contrast between abandoned machines and the children's vivid costumes and behavior gives the clip a distinctive blend of science fiction, fantasy, and social observation. Rather than presenting a conventional band performance, it builds an enigmatic world around "Movement."
