Director Statement

This song has inspired me to give in to the hard feelings of a breakup. I wanted to match the emotion of real life in a cinematic way. The darker lighting, frustration, and torn papers all go with the vision of heartbreak. I hope each of you can connect with this song and video the way I did.
