A support group meeting becomes the set of an impromptu performance in a poignant new video for Cult Party, aka Manchester troubadour Leo Robinson and friends. Here, London-based filmmaker Patrick Taylor talks about the Super 8-shot video he made for the track Kiss (Two):
"The video deals with themes of anxiety and release. Whether it’s depression, addiction or bereavement, the effects can be debilitating. Yet what remains is a universal desire to make peace with yourself and the world around you. We attempt to express this through dance.
Nina, the video’s star, is no dancer and for me, this didn’t matter, as it was more about capturing a feeling. It was never our intention to choreograph anything glitzy, instead, we chose to focus more on emotion and impulse—to get up and to just do it, unafraid and free of constraint."
