Russian roulette on wheels
Post-Soviet aesthetics carried by the clip DIVE by Corvad is our official selection for Music Video of the Week. Directed by Solomon @solomon.dde and produced by Dmitry Chmut @chmutss from @pattern.film
DIVE takes us to a scene of the subcultures and extreme thrill seeking activities to solve a dispute, taking action in the form of “russian roulette on wheels”. The idea of two cars driving at each other, with the first person to swerve being the “loser,” is known as “chicken.”
Director Solomon has designed – without a doubt – an artistic, dynamic experience with top notch visual language, compositions and acting. The melancholic-realistic atmosphere only emphasizes the eastern-european aesthetics.
Great job to the whole team.
