Major Lazer & Showtek 'Believer' by Christopher Louie

Cat Velez - 12th Jan 2017

Christopher Louie has directed a heart-wrenching visual about a fun-loving Syrian childhood usurped by the violence of war for Major Lazer and Showtek's latest track Believer.

Tracking moments in the life of a playful and smiley boy, the poignant clip begins with his slight, youthful face covered in dust as he finds himself caught in a wreckage following an explosion. Meanwhile, old home movies show him during bright, carefree times, playing with the kids of his neighborhood... until a black, horned devil makes his violent entry into his life. And as the vision encroaches ever more, the boy gets caught up in a fever dream - curious, scared and eager to understand the frightening creature chasing him.
