Ellius Grace directs a gripping folk horror-inspired promo for Irish alternative folk singer-songwriter Junior Brother.&nbsp;In the&nbsp;video for the track Junior Brother's Favourite, we see a young man stalked by a harrowing creature, who seems intent on taking something from him.&nbsp;It's a tale where dread, fear and madness coalesce&nbsp;into a fever pitch, two memorable characters set within a rural Irish setting which is captured in wonderfully textural, sepia-tinged cinematography by Aidan Gault.Balanced by a stripped-back, monochromatic performance setup, it's a lovely piece of work that is haunting in all the right places, and definitely sticks in your memory.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

Junior Brother 'Junior Brother's Favourite' by Ellius Grace

Junior-Brother-'Junior-Brother's-Favourite'-by-Ellius-Grace

Ellius Grace directs a&nbsp;tragedy of bad self esteem, in this wacky promo for Junior Brother.&nbsp;Feeling undesirable and unseen by his wife, a man quite literally becomes part of the furniture, blending into towels, tablecloths and sofa cushions, while his wife only pays attention&nbsp;to her own plights.&nbsp;The absurdist concept is complemented by a strangely uncanny aesthetic, as if this type of shapeshifting was an everyday occurence.Anchored by excellent performances from Bryan Quinn and Laura McGlinchey and some top-notch art direction, it's a captivating and memorable video.&nbsp;
