BUG 16: Cinnamon Chasers’ Luv Deluxe by Saman Keshavarz

Cinnamon Chasers' Luv Deluxe by Saman KeshavarzThe video for British electro/’indietronica’ act Cinnamon Chasers’ Luv Deluxe, directed by Iranian-born, Californian-raised 23 year old Saman Keshavarz, is a great modern variation on one of the classic film noir/road movie storylines, one of the best POV videos in a long time, and more besides.

A boy leaves home, hits the road and hooks up with a girl, and together they hurl headlong into all sorts of bad behaviour and big trouble. But Keshavarz also explores what happens when our boy takes different routes down his personal road.

Superb, and absolutely gripping from start to finish.

    Starts off predictable but offers something new with the structure. Looks ace and keeps you gripped, gives you more than you expect.

    Outstanding narrative and love the circular end to it all…
    The gimmick of POV takes another twist on the various outcomes that the film offers and calls for a very well thought out narrative with not a single shot wasted….
    Would like to see your efforts go very far Sam!

    will spread this one around in London

    Khodafeez!
