The video for German electronic outfit Moderat's Bad Kingdom tells a gripping tale of mid-20th century adventure, derring-do, corruption, greed and murder - from the colonial school to the corridors of power – all in a series of illustrations in a vintage, Boy's Own-style of the 1950s and 60s.

It's the work of Pfadfinderei, top Berlin-based design and direction collective, who have created various visual assets for Moderat in the past, including tour visuals and ads as well as full videos. Who needs motion anyway?
