(01) The film
One room, one red light and a dancer who refuses to stop.
Paper Moon was shot in a single day in an empty rehearsal room in east London. Theo built the whole video around one red practical and a dancer who improvises for the full length of the track.
The approach
No cuts for the first ninety seconds. When the edit finally arrives, it lands on the beat the song has been holding back.
