Concept

The video begins with a group of people in the forest torturing animals, before Ganacci is alerted by an eagle and arrives driving a shoe. He then subjects the torturers to the very punishments they were inflicting on the animals. Ganacci worked with director Vedran Rupic and said about the clip "My message is always about love, but I really love to experiment with what love can be."
