Ash 'Rebirth' by Andrew Baird

Luke Bather - 6th Mar 2017

A chance encounter with director Andrew Baird led to Irish trio Ash commissioning this cinematic short film featuring three tracks from the band's new album. This itself begins with a chance encounter before developing into an intense, impressionistic drama about a tumultuous relationship touched by tragedy.

In the eight and a half minute film, that moves freely back and forth in time, Baird extracts intense performances from his lead actors and there's some harrowing moments before it settles into a peaceful melancholy in the final act. After the trauma that precedes it, this ties in with the title, as we see the couple begin anew – just as we're witnessing hearing the band start anew too.
