CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU
MUSIC VIDEO
"Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” is a narrative music video based on one of the most famous song by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. The story evolves around a confused young man that has to reject his top-model girlfriend in order to follow his true love. With the music as the driving force of the story, the film aims to break the common conception of “soundtracks perceived as accompaniment to the visual”. The music video is closing up its festival circuit. Stay tuned for the next screening events.
