Joel Corry X Becky Hills 'History' by Elliot Simpson

Rob Ulitski - 21st Sept 2022

A man has some painful memories reconfigured in Elliot Simpson's promo for Joel Corry and Becky Hills. 

In the same faux-utopic vein as previous collabs I Wish and Bed, the sci-fi concept in History proposes a world in which memories can be altered and 'put right', via a personal home visit from Joel, Becky and their futuristic arsenal of gadgets. 

The narrative perfectly blends the borders of surrealism and reality, and gives the artists a chance to flex their acting muscles in addition to some very filmic performance setups. 

Seamless and slick, the video is equal parts Black Mirror and pop promo, and is a real visual treat.
