Synopsis

Several members of Crystal Fighters separately return to a familiar place after an apparent absence. Their reunions provoke sharply different emotions, ranging from excitement and affection to anger and resignation, suggesting that the group shares an unresolved history. As they gradually come together, the reason for their meeting becomes clear: they are returning to recover a box they buried long ago. The narrative gives the song's homesick and romantic mood a lightly mysterious, folkloric frame, building toward a final gathering around the buried secret.
