Bianca Poletti invites audiences on a journey of love and self-destruction in her music film for Cuban-American actress and singer-songwriter Nikki Lorenzo.The video for Lista intricately explores the complex dynamics of a couple ensnared in toxicity, navigating the delicate balance between passion and peril. And Poletti reunites Nikki Lorenzo and True Detective star John Hawkes on screen, marking their third collaboration.In this latest venture, Lorenzo and Hawkes engage in a chaotic dance of emotions, portraying a couple desperately yearning to be together. Despite their fervent desire, they find themselves repeatedly drawn back, navigating the intricate maze of lust, love, desperation, sorrow, bliss, and jealousy.Boasting a burnt-orange colour palette, representing the fiery passion that runs through the video, the aesthetic feels like a blend of film and editorial photography, with abstract montages and choreographed dance scenes that visualise the intimate themes. "The narrative is about two people passionately seeking each other but unable to make the relationship work," Poletti explains."The video delves into the magnetic spark that accompanies meeting someone truly captivating. I wanted the end to feel like something they both didn't want; they fought to stay together, but there was no other option for them."
