Michael LeBlanc's huge ensemble dance video for Wintersleep sees a man search for a break from loneliness in a place so many do: the bingo hall.

Set in a small Canadian town seemingly at the end of the world, we follow an isolated man as he dances his way through Twin Peaks-style surreality both inside and outside. Impressive large-scale shots of a populated street and a bizarre golden dance routine in a local bingo hall make the video visually intriguing. Not to mention the great big foreboding moon in the sky at the start of the clip.

MICHAEL LEBLANC:

"We shot this video in one day, working with non-dancers in Schomberg, a small town in Ontario Canada. I wanted to show a portrait of someone dealing with isolation.  The main characters' world reflects a mirror of his internal life. It’s about escapism and finding freedom during a breakdown. 

"I needed a technique for the dance that could visually work with the dancers.  So we slowed the song down and shot at a lower frame rate which enabled them to hit all the beats together."
