Director Statement

The lyrics of "Grab Twist Pull" speak about sexual harassment where a female voice, Carina’s, addresses and judges her male aggressor. The hunter, "now prey", is asked to uncover himself and recognize the abuses he has committed. He does not respond and he is then punished. Musically, the song develops 5 contrasted and vibrant themes that invites the audience to participate in a critical narrative of sexual harassment.

The ultimate goal of the video is to put the audience into the shoes of a victim of abuse and encourages both victims and witnesses of a harassment to take action in unveiling the identity of the harasser.
