Taken from Mads Damsgaard Kristiansen aka Reptile Youth’s latest EP Away, Arab Spring Break Part 1 & 2 is an extended track which has lended itself perfectly to what is effectively a lovely, pastel-washed short film by Daniel Kragh-Jacobsen. 

Captivating and bittersweet, the sensitivity Kragh-Jacobsen has with his characters results in an inspired, true-to-life piece of work. 

“I wanted to portray relationships," the director told Clash Music. "But this story is not only about relationships between lovers, it’s also about friendship. To me the dynamic in relationships is a very fragile thing, and it’s so interesting that it can change from positive to negative in a split second. And it’s fascinating that we can’t control it. I don’t have an answer to what is good and bad when you’re in a relationship. I simply wanted to try and portray feelings that I have experienced, and I believe others have as well.”
