Japanese Breakfast Play Tug of War With Time in ‘Picture Window’ Video

Japanese Breakfast share "Picture Window" music video from their new album 'For Melancholy Brunettes (& sad women).'

“I wanted this video to feel like a short film,” the musician shared about the visual, which stars Omega from Balming Tiger and Gyuri Kim. Filmed while Zauner, who directed the video, was living in Seoul last year, “Picture Window” follows the pair as they play tug of war with the passage of time. The video cuts between scenes that are soaked in cold blue hues and others that are hyper-realistic, where the couple runs through city streets and frolic through parks.Zauner was drawn to Omega’s energy and charm when casting him in the role, but it was Kim’s “melancholy and uncertainty,” she says, that made them a perfect match.
