Olly Alexander 'When We Kiss' by Colin Solal Cardo

Promonews - 23rd Jan 2025

The latest video from Colin Solal Cardo to introduce Olly Alexander's new album Polari continues a choreography-based narrative that began with the visuals for the title track and Cupid's Bow.

In an enclosed space where he's separated from his team of dancers, including his love interest, Olly's heartfelt yearning for a human connection is expressed through a combination of performance and dance.

It's captured with great use of constantly moving camerawork, both within and outside the constructed space, in a video where each department has excelled, including Jake Hunter's cinematography and Furmann Ahmed's production design.
