«The video is an attempt to depict the most important events of the story »,explains guitarist and bassist Valentyn Leschynskyi, whose brother Danil is vocalist and keyboard player. «The director wrote the script based on the fact that two of the band members are brothers. So they played those parts. The leitmotif of the video is the envy and ambivalence of the younger brother towards the older one, a modern interpretation of the biblical story of Cain and Abel. The younger brother is a lowly and emaciated character».

«The topic of the book is very sensitive for Ukrainians nowadays because the main idea of the work is defense and respect for your own land. When the active phase of the war started, we decided to release it for the fear of possible occupation and repression of Ukrainian culture».
