Napoleon IIIrd's The Unknown Unknown by Sonny Malhotra & Dexter Kong | Videos | Promonews

Jimmy Brown - 31st Mar 2011

Taken from his second album Christiania, Napoleon IIIrd - aka Yorkshire musician James Mabbett - enlists Sonny Malhotra and Dexter Kong to direct the promo for lead track The Unknown Unknown.

Shot in London on a Canon 5D for a budget of just £180, the video is upbeat, happy and hopeful - a chronicle of three friends' joyful day out. There's going to be a twist in the tail - but it's still shocking and sobering when it comes.
