Little Dragon’s Crystalfilm

By

EB favorites Little Dragon just released a new video for their haunting down-tempo track ‘Crystalfilm’, taken from last years wonderful Ritual Union. Directed by Daniel Wirtberg, it’s a beautiful take on the classic farm-girl-runs-away-with-a-group-of-masked-scarecrows coming of age tale.
