the xx: islands

An absolutely gorgeous video So many intricacies and details that just add... something else, something indescribable.

My take on the video is everyone is living in conformity, creating a synchronized beautiful dance. Slowly everyone starts to think for themselves, realizing they don't love the person they're with, they don't have to play by the rules and eventually just drop out. The place sets on fire, creating chaos. WIthout conformity, there is chaos.
