INFO:

The video was filmed in the Latvian Academy of Sciences, a hyperreal totem of Socialist Classicism and depicts Laibach’s frontman kept alive by the very thing that sickens him: MUSICK. The video is directed by Morten Traavik – who arranged for the band to travel to North Korea and documented it in the film Liberation Day (2016) and directed their 2014 video for ‘The Whistleblowers’ – who explains, In line with Laibach´s general artistic and philosophical values, we´re aiming for the perfect union of George Orwell and Lady Gaga.”
