IRGENDWO IM PARADIES

Music Video, 2024

SYNOPSIS

Somewhere in paradise, two lovers are wandering around looking for each other but, blinded by love, cannot find each other. In their surreal bedroom facade with a leafy floor, they get ready for their wedding. The wedding ceremony is performed by a sinister priest with whom they both have a deeper connection...

Just as the lyrics of the song by Stuttgart band ZWEIFEL use very ambiguous metaphors to sing the praises of a toxic love affair, the surreal images in the video also leave room for interpretation.
