The contrast between these two settings helps to enhance the dreamy, ethereal feeling of the indoor shots. The video culminates with a powerful image of the young boy as he is lifted off the ground appearing to transcend the beautiful period setting surrounding him. “The video was a true labour of love," says Mill+ director FILFURY. "We had a very small budget, and worked over the Christmas period (when locations and crew were impossible to get hold of). However I loved the song and knew what I wanted to achieve with it. Waking up – taken literally with a sprinkle of magic and abstraction."
