Filmed in Uzbekistan, the promo for Palestinian-Chilean artist Elyanna's track Ghazali draws on the region’s rich cultural heritage and lush visual traditions. 

Produced by New–Land, Nagmeh Pour's film boasts a mouthwateringly juicy palette and exquisite styling. With creative direction by Elyanna’s brother, Feras Marijeh, it was shot at the studio of Franco-Uzbek painters Daima and Maxim Vardanian.

Based on a traditional wedding chant, the song takes its name from the Arabic word for gazelle and explores ideas of beauty, vulnerability and freedom.

Pour carries that spirit of rebellion into the film, turning the familiar image of the hunted gazelle on its head and creating a celebration of a woman breaking free from restrictions and expectations into a joyous rainbow world of dance and general merriment.
