"In a world bathed in tranquility, this soul finds its serene refuge... And on Beth's farm, no soul is destined to fade." Prepare yourself for a delightful amuse-bouche ahead of Yorgos Lanthimos' cinematic feast later this year! Focus Features, in collaboration with the music label untitled (recs), have unveiled a captivating music video for a track by the acclaimed composer and musician, Jerskin Fendrix. His name resonates with excellence, having been nominated for an Academy Award for his score in Lanthimos' film 'Poor Things' (among other credits including 'Kinds of Kindness'). Fendrix continues his collaboration with Lanthimos, scoring their upcoming film titled 'Bugonia,' starring Emma Stone. Premiering at the 2025 Venice Film Festival and hitting theaters later this fall, the film has once again brought together this talented trio to shoot the music video on an idyllic farm in England.
Yorgos shares, "It was a delightful reunion with Emma and a host of familiar faces to contribute a cinematic narrative to what I consider a remarkable second personal album from our esteemed artistic collaborator and dear friend." The video is now live and can be viewed below. Enjoy the visual feast!
Grateful to Focus Features for presenting this music video via Jerskin Fendrix's YouTube channel. "We emerge from the grass, our lips seeking sustenance from the earth, where milk flows beneath every visible surface—each rock, every pine tree whispers its secrets. We twirl in the barn's embrace, our steps leaving prints in the mud. Laughter echoes as moonlight bathes the fields in brilliance. Pain and blood are absent here; your eyes gleam like priceless pearls in the moonlight..."
Directed by the celebrated Greek filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, known for his works such as 'My Best Friend,' 'Kinetta,' 'Dogtooth,' 'Alps,' 'The Lobster,' 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer,' 'The Favourite,' 'Poor Things,' and this year's 'Bugonia,' the music video for "Beth's Farm" is a visual delight. The song, written, produced, and performed by English musician Jerskin Fendrix, features on his upcoming album titled "Once Upon A Time... In Shropshire," set for release in October this year. This album serves as a nostalgic love letter to a bygone era—a shining, rose-tinted childhood and the lives that painted it. For further details, visit YouTube.
