there was never any love to begin with (2021)
Overview
Originally a TikTok compilation, sculpted into a psychedelic documentary on the loneliness and dark beauty of Los Angeles, California. Slow and meditative, mostly composed of silent shots of street lamps, moving cars and rain, which are occasionally broken up with bursts of music and a climactic digital appearance by Kanye West.
