Atlas is a music video that unfolds in a vast green field, where a cult-like group moves in perfect sync. A surreal world that mirrors the song’s lyrics is formed, with long laundry lines stretching across the meadow. At the heart of the story: a living heart encased in a clock, while the cult leader wears a unique heart-shaped headpiece. The doves, sitting delicately on Pommelien’s shoulders, add to the absurd world of Atlas. Meanwhile, behind the monitor the crew held their breath and hoping they wouldn’t fly off during the shot.

For her directorial debut, Pommelien worked closely with her choreographer and cinematographer, blending dance, creativity and absurdist elements into a beautiful and intriguing music video.
