This music video was created as part of the prestigious 'Youth Music Video Competition' (YMVC), in collaboration with the esteemed 'First Cut Film Festival.' Ten emerging filmmakers from across Ireland were carefully chosen and paired with an established Irish Artist to produce a music video, working within a €1,000 budget. Set to the haunting track "Inhaling" from Ailbhe Reddy's sophomore album, 'Endless Affair,' the video unfolds a compelling narrative. The protagonist and his wife's intimate dinner takes an unexpected turn when her fortune cookie seemingly curses her, leading to an abduction by aliens. Consumed by grief and driven by anger, the protagonist embarks on a mission to avenge his wife, choosing an unconventional path by disrupting the lives of other couples.
