Oscar Dunbar's video for West London indie band Khartoum is the story of Benny and Alice - two big characters who fall hard for each other. Sparks fly big time - but can it last?Inspired by Bonnie &amp; Clyde - which is referenced in the song - and Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Dunbar&nbsp; builds his passionate romance between two charismatic women and then starts to subvert the dream with an increasingly complicated narrative structure,&nbsp;in the manner of early&nbsp;Tarantino.The couple start commenting&nbsp;separately to an unseen interrogator&nbsp;about their relationship, and their accounts begin to diverge. But we're always drawn back to the pair's essential glamour, captured by Dunbar and DoP Richard Bell's rich cinematography.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]"I was very lucky to work with the most wonderful actors in Danni Spooner and Zinzi Caine," says Dunbar. "I wanted to modernise the old formula for a film based around a couple by working with actors from the under-represented LGBTQ+ and Black community."My long-term collaborator Richard Bell was the cinematographer and this project has been a labour of love for us both. We hope you enjoy."
