Julia Holter shares new video for “Les Jeux to You,” announces tour
Julia Holter has shared a new video from her latest album, Aviary, for “Les Jeux to You.” The clip is directed by Geneva Jacuzzi and has an art-film sensibility, depicting Holter and co-star Tashi Wada in a kind of surreal beachside fantasy. Geneva Jacuzzi said of the clip, “After I heard ‘Les Jeux to You,’ images from Fando Y Lis, a film that has always haunted me, flooded my mind and I knew we had to reimagine it. Set in a dystopian future past, the two lovers escape to a mythical city and along the way are confronted with both terrifying figures of the unconscious and joyful memories of the past that accelerate a descent into madness. As a female artist, I felt the need to explore the anima of this myth and reinscribe the imagery as a mode of empowerment of the feminine directorial gaze.”
