Da Co Luc – Lieu Anh Tuan

2008

Translated into English means “There Were Moments”. The lyrics of the song speak about the moments in the artists life where he had fumbled, fallen, made mistakes, and felt, well, like a loser.

A visual narrative that we felt would make a good fit and wanted to explore was that of a clown, overlooking a dystopic, futuristic Saigon – imagine Bozo the Clown meets Bladerunner – who decides to meet his end. He jumps. But it turns out that life had other plans for Mr. Clown and he finds out that he is actually good at something. We all need our support groups.

Thanks to Yeti Film + Animation for art and efx as well as Ha Le and dancers from Hoang Thong, Big South and Freestyle crews.
