Birdy 'Wings' Shot by Sophie Muller

Director Sophie Muller invites viewers into a Renaissance fantasy world with Birdy’s latest video “Wings.” In the artful clip, we follow the 17-year old singer as she strolls through an extravagant garden party.  The Black Dog director captures a haunting feeling of loneliness from Birdy, even as the revelers play around her in flamboyant costumes and masks.

Amidst the stylized celebration, we get private moments with the teen songstress as she pierces the viewer with her melancholic - if not completely heartbreaking - gaze.  Sophie Muller’s “Wings” is a gorgeous fever dream that captures the delicate limbo between innocence and adulthood, as Birdy’s dulcet tones float airily against the chaotic backdrop.
