In the official trailer, which can be seen here http://youtu.be/o15AIXuDS3A, Joel (for KING & COUNTRY) sets the scene, "What if our ears were muted, our mouths silenced, our eyes blinded and our souls so far from hope that we were all but lost? Could one moment, a simple act of courage, breathe light into darkness?"
Joel further describes the elaborate and inspiring filming process, "During the 1st day of filming, I paused to take in the scene, 60+ extras, 22 crew, trucks, electricians and set designers. There was a moment where I had the thought, 'this is really happening!' This music video is a true testament to the power of the team. Each and every person rallied together to make this the very best it could be. After all the writing, dreaming and working with our brother Ben [director], we're so thrilled to present to you our first-ever concept music video."
"This project was truly a 'labor of love'," continues director Ben Smallbone of Radiate Films. "My brothers, Joel and Luke, not only acted and performed in the video but also worked with me behind the scenes in writing and editing. It's exciting to see the vision that we dreamed together so many months ago finally come to fruition. Working with my brothers was both a fun and seamless process as its something we've done since we were young. Our hope is that this video will not just entertain but that the message will also inspire. What is the message? You decide."
