Hozier engages top filmmaking Irish talent to reinterpret classic Irish literature for the video for De Selby Pt 2 - staring with director Wolf James and actor Domhnall Gleeson.Inspired by the absurdist world of Irish author Flann O'Brien, the video follows the circular descent of main character Flann, played by Gleeson, and his chaotic yet darkly comic inner journey.Backdropped by external desolation - the video was shot in the wilds of the Wicklow Mountains where the director now resides - the video is a tour de force of creativity and imagination. "I’m very proud to release this collaborative video for De Selby (Part 2)” Hozier says. “Working together with such creative talents toward this piece was a pleasure, and I’m honored that Domhnall Gleeson would bring his remarkable skills and this stunning performance to my work.”Electrifying work with a gritty, conforting aesthetic.
