French electronic artist Katuchat is taken on a surreal journey in a stretch limousine, by a driver whose face is cracked with light, in directing collective JTM's video for Memento.Following their minimalist one-shot video for Katuchat's video for Home Is Not A Place - also shot in the stretch limo - the directing trio of Théo Jollet, Thomas Trichet and Martin Maire employ a range of discplines to build this visually striking narrative, where the artist is travelling into an eery retrospective of his past, including extensive VFX and 3D animation.In the video Katuchat encounters characters and symbols that remind him of the most important elements of his life: his grandparents, the crowd, the large hospital complexes and the omnipresence of fire.
