Imagining an abundant and peaceful green city of the future, a place of complete harmony, Inanna sings her “Invisible City” – a sweet chant calling for redemptive beauty and warding off the darkness of our times. In the visionary new music video, Italian director Alessandro Bordoni has chosen to present a dark contrast to Inanna’s sensuous and seductive song: in a murky caricature of our own times, with nightmarish pest-doctors policing an imprisoned patient, the longing for freedom and harmony becomes an antidote to fear and despair. Inanna herself appears in different guises, as a white futuristic messenger, a red prophetess and as a neon miracle-worker of the night flanked by companion dancers. In a virtual world symbolizing the unborn future, Inanna’s body and limbs appear in strange blossoming dream-flowers of the night, carrying a promise of something miraculous and yet unseen. A treat to the senses and a darkly playful comment on our own age, Invisible City is revealed as more than an imaginary place to escape to: it is an invitation to be serious about our dreams.
