    I just watched this video at a friend's house while smoking and drinking. We were all talking loudly and joking, then when this video started we all stopped and started watching it, in complete silence, until the end. Its energy just captured us and stopped time. Just beautiful, cheers to everyone reading this! Ciao from Italy

    Wow, seriously, everything about this video is amazing! The acting, the story, the memories, the music, the beats, and the acting again - all just awesome. From the very beginning, I felt a connection, seeing myself in the clip from minute 0. It reminded me of how I used to live in Morocco, doing the same things - doing push-ups at home, striking the monkey posture, running with friends, just being myself. Now, watching this, I'm filled with gratitude. Thank you from the USA, where I left everything behind to start a new life. God bless you, Blaze! I truly congratulate you for creating this piece of art.

    I get tears in my eyes every time I watch this master piece, as a palestinian who lived abroad from age 18 for almost 6 years then came back home (due to pandemic and other personal reasons) I can feel everything in this scenario, in Arabic it's called "ghareeb fi bladak", to be foreigner/stranger in your homeland.
    It's so many struggles combined you deal with, it's the active and post-colonialism we are going through in such countries, North Africa and all blad al sham and central Asian countries, we are tired yet we want to fight back, and decolonize our minds and bodies. My ultimate dream is to see the day when all borders and walls will fall and have a huge party all together from Sahara to Kabul and through AL Quds and Jaffa, Beirut, South to Sanaa, Algiers Baghdad..

    I remember when I moved away (to France). I was 22 and had no idea what I was doing in life, all I knew was that I had to get away. My mother supported the decision to my face but she kept saying that I'll always comes home, ''because that's I always do''. I don't think she delieved that I really would move away so far. When I left I wasn't scared I was excited, I had no money, no phone, and I spoek no French at all. I had a person I could stay with and they would meet me at a train station in Centre at a certain time. My mother and my sister both brought me to the airport and we sat and had a last talk in the cafe there. Everyone was normal and happy, mother saying things like stay safe, watch out for pickpockets, it was all very normal. I remember thinking how well my mother is dealing with it all. The time came and I had to get through security and wait for my plane so I had to say goodbye. I kissed my mother and sister, big hugs and my mother made a joke then I walked off. As I was walking away from them I immediately felt alone, even though they were just a few meters behind me I knew they were gone and it wouldn't ever be the same. I said I wouldn't turn around but I couldn't help it, I had to wave goodbye to my mother. She was on the floor in tears, she couldn't even breathe or stand.I had never seen her so broken. I didn't think about how much I was hurting her because I was young and needed a new life. I wasn't allowed to walk back then and I had to leave her. That was the hardest point for me. I wish I didn't look back.

    I'm from Algeria where this story happens, the scenario is very well made, it about a "harrag" (someone who goes to another country illegally seeking a better life) coming back to his original territory (home) to the sad miserable life, where he's forced to live, so he starts going crazy for it and loses his mind on it.. it's kinda sad that countless amount of people are living like this.
    (this is my interpretation of it tho.)
    edit: after a while, and through the replies, i realised that everyone can make their own interpretation depending on their emotional situation when watching... it hits different people differently, that's true art...evokes emotions. (some hate, some relate, some miss their home/family/territory, some feel proud, some feel threatened.. etc. thanks for all the replies)

      I see it as someone (harrag that finally gets legal papers) visiting home after living abroad for too long, the place where he feels wild and strong the most. Cause he seems mostly happy in the video. Still your way of seeing this video is reasonable too.

      @CapitaILetter 4 роки тому +39

      @WakandaForevar So far the blaze are my favorite artists atm, probs to these French guys for this music and this video per se. Their videos always have some link to Algeria. They've made alot of videos where you can clearly see an Algerian symbol, motto or even a famous Algerian man's name written somewhere. In this video, you can't even see the slightest of a hint about which country is this. We only depend on the comments to know. I think it's made in a way that we as viewers are not expected to view it in a particular way. We'll see it from our perspective, and our outcome from our past experiences if we had lived abroad for exemple or our imaginations from what could have happend if we happen to immigrate. When I see myself in the place of that actor, I feel like my previous comment. (I live far away from home btw).
      And I think Sys Dz is just curious man or maybe a fan 😅

I'm angry but there's no one to blame.

    I'm still having so much trouble believing that this was pure acting. The way I was crying with him in the beginning is exactly the reason why I was convinced this video was real.

      just a freaking good director for sure. that needs a damn good combo of imagination/knowing what you want to show and a lot of skill in advising ur cast and finding the perfect people for that cast. Just skills. Not necessarily experience. But it's rare, because it's not easy to create something that authentic and touching. And they work with alot of "opposites" in this video, it's like when u see a "hard muscular guy" cry, it will hit you way harder than a small, tiny guy. Just because you didn't expect it. That touches. I think it's a complex mix of all those things together. A big part out of concept/planing but i also think, as i said, that it needs the right director, the right people and amount of patience, stupidly said: the feelings which each and everyone is ready to invest. Great teamwork for sure there.

    Every few months I come back to this video. This song, the video, the emotions it's so powerful. Reading the comments you can see just how much it resonates with so many of us lost out there. But one comment in particular always gets me, I can't help but tear up when reading it. The comment seems to be deleted now but I managed to save a copy before it was. I hope whoever wrote it is doing well, this is what they said:
    It's a weird feeling, wanting to go back home but there's no home to go back to, a child without a parent, a citizen without a country, a traveler that lost his destination. I've visited about 40 countries, resided in 10, and none seem to fill this need of home. I went back once but home was gone, there was nothing left, just dust and ghosts and memories that now haunt me. The room I used to share with my 8 brothers and sisters doesn't exist anymore. It stopped existing the second I left. I was there some years ago and I could almost picture the house back together small and brown and the dog and my grandfather smoking and smell my grandmother cooking for all of us. People told me there were explosions on the horizon but I couldn't hear anything, I just screamed.
    This is a marvellous video, I wish we could all be so lucky. I'd give my limbs to be the man in this video, back home with my parents my grandparents my brothers my cousins my friends, my kin my blood my family. I'd trade it all. But they're not here and I'm not there and you can't interrupt the flow and ask why it is. It just is. They don't want me there, but I don't want me here. Fuck man, I've never been this homesick.

Watching this song enabled me make a conscious effort to try and get closer to him and to my family in general. To stay in touch with friends who helped me make the person I am today and stood by me throughout. I am thankful to this song and the video which is a true work of art to bring out so many emotions out of me. Watching this for the first time was an out of body experience and it still gives me chills watching it back every time.

      my favorit is the end, when u see how extremely happy he is, pure joy in his face, bites his hand, swings his arms up in the sky... 5:20 thats so pure. so fkin relatable, dancing with your friends, everyone smiling,

    Never have I ever been so touched by a piece of music video.
    The inicial drama setting, both in the acting and the melody. The majestic set up. Amazing.
    I was even more amezed with the, almost dance like, flow with the melody through out the music. In tune with the beat. Great camera and lighting, I can't quite what it is, but the clip is gourgeus all around.
    And finally the window into the lens of somewhere else, foreign to what we're most surrounded. To watch life all around, so different, yet so similar. It makes one thinks that we barely know the surface of what it is to be like this... A day in the life, in the TERRITORY.
    Mind blown, 10/10 would and will recommend to everyone!

    THIS is how I am feeling. The video is truly a masterpiece. The emotions that the actor displays are so genuine and really close to what I am living; sadness, joy, pain and rage at the same time. I can't remember when or if I ever saw a song/video that touched me that much in a way that it's even a shock. He is unbelievably good and accurate, now I just want to watch more of his work. This is pure art, which gives emotions and brings back so many memories. I never heard this song before today and now I can't get enough.

He is solitary while surrounded by men his own age, his slow realisation he doesn’t belong and his frustration at the end the gorilla chest pump, his lack of territory.
