Ost & Kjex 'Honky Tonk' by Eivind Landsvik
David Knight - 4th May 2016
Eivind Landsvik video for Norwegian duo Ost & Kjex's Honky Tonk exhibits that bone-dry sadness-tinged Norwegian sense of humour, about a girl who has nothing much to do other than stare into her various electronic devices.
"I like to think of the video as an existential comedy about the boredom of everyday life, death anxiety and loneliness," says the director. He's not wrong. This quietly presses on the point, or rather the pointlessness of mild screen addiction.
But just don't leave us quite yet, because you really need to see this...
