Behind the Scenes

edit

The first two-thirds of the video were shot in first-person perspective and long shots.[1][8] The set design was to condense the last journey of the deceased into a microcosmic tunnel, with six scenes of imagery,[1][8] namely the morgue, the inside of the freezer, the flowers surrounding the funeral, the inside of the coffin, the inside of the crematorium, and the inside of the tower of the bones, and then finally to return to the reality of the vast seaside.[9]

Anecdotes
