Cemeteries &ndash; aka one man band Kyle J. Reigle from Buffalo &ndash; teams up with Michael Lawrence for this dark film for his track The Wilderness. A young man, played by Ryan Schira, breaks into a an old dusty warehouse and curiously, is enticed to burn it down by his &lsquo;accomplice&rsquo;.&ldquo;When Kyle and I first spoke about doing a film for The Wilderness, our common bond was an upbringing in the lost, abandoned, and beautiful post-industrial landscape of Buffalo, NY,&rdquo; Michael explains.&ldquo;A palette of magenta and green with creeping moonlight came forth when listening to the track. We built a small narrative of a savant exploring a factory &ndash; symbolizing the cellular memory of generations past that once resided in the lakefront paper and grain mills of our hometown. The shafts of light and faint, distant memories are a view inside the cerebral cortex of two colliding versions of self.&rdquo;
