Synopsis

The video follows a cab driver, played by Neil Maskell, during a tense nighttime shift. The cab becomes a confined stage for the track's clipped, mechanical energy, while the surrounding city is presented as shadowy and uneasy rather than glamorous. Instead of a conventional performance piece, the film builds its momentum from the driver's isolation, the repetitive movement of the car, and an atmosphere of urban paranoia.
