“BAGGEN - SAMI RIVER” by Bruno Nogarotto
Sami River is the last man in the world in Baggen's video clip: with his face painted in black and white, he wanders alone in abandoned and decadent spaces in a crescendo of frustration.

Eli cruises her way through the vivid streets of the Peruvian jungle, singing and reflecting on her past, reuniting with friends and welcoming the bright future ahead.
