Co-directed with longtime collaborator and friend Laurent Nathan Grey. Featuring Taiwanese-Chinese actress Amber Kuo (郭采潔), this is one of three music videos produced for The Other Side of Hope, an album by Mola Oddity, a music unit formed in early 2024 by Yider and Asr of the band NaraBara. Inspired by fasciation, a type of plant mutation, and theatrical performance, the video was crafted as a single continuous shot capturing fluid, dance-like movement from start to finish.
