This music video is a project of a particular kind that shows Lex! in a deliberately
minimalist staging and plays with the perception of time and movement.
The footage was shot forwards but played backwards, while the artist learned the
lyrics in reverse, so that his lips stay perfectly in sync with the vocals despite
the inverted movement. Rain appears to flow from the bottom up and gives the
performance a surreal, almost otherworldly quality in which reality and reversal
merge.
The visual layer combines a rainy solo performance with calm nature shots in which
black, silhouette-like figures appear. This creates a poetic tension between human
and surroundings, control and letting go, movement and stillness.
