How does it feel to be in a difficult relationship? You grow apart. You’re distant. Estranged. You live in a different world from the person you love.
Shot with in a vivid nocturnal palette using spectacular camerawork designed to heighten the emotional authenticity of the story, this music video captures the feeling of a complicated relationship by splitting the world into two symmetrical but different realities.
Orelsan and Mathilde, the woman he loves, exist in two realities that are mirror images of each other. They experience the same scenes without being physically together with the other. Throughout the clip, they try to find each other and bring their two realities together, particularly during the chorus, when we understand that each world is the upside-down version of the other. Their chase continues until the end, when they reunite at the two ends of a giant ladder above the clouds.
