Ghostfile # 10

The video is dedicated to the Japanese people and shows blurry images from (surveillance) cameras or news broadcasts about the devastating Tōhoku earthquake in 2011 .

Polaroyced

With a mask on his head and a red t-shirt with a flash, the protagonist of the video looks like a superhero; he dances around and meets a small dog.
