Desert Sessions by Andreas Neumann
Josh Homme has collaborated with the New York Film Academy for two brand new Desert Sessions videos.
Italian filmmaker Gabriele Fabbro has provided the promo for the acoustic ballad If You Run, while Zimbabwean filmmaker Jonathan Samukange has done the same on the psychedelic Move Together.
“I used to read a lot of news about murders, especially on European newspapers,” Fabbro explains. “I remember one in particular that happened in a cornfield.”
“That article came to mind while hearing ‘If You Run.’” The filmmaker said in a statement, “With this music video I want to touch themes such as ‘femicide’, ‘chase for justice’, ‘innocent curiosity vs violence’. But on top, I want to play with an existential fear. The fear of being powerless. Every tool in the video, from the shakiness of the handheld shots to the distorted sound of the radio, serves to exaggerate this fear.”
