Brazilian metal/grunge band Republica launches video inspired on George Orwell's "Animal Farm"

The video was released exclusively on Vevo and on the website of Rolling Stone Magazine


Inspired on the 'Best Seller' "Animal Farm" from George Orwell, is already available the video clip "Life Goes On" of the Brazilian metal/grunge band Republica.
"Life Goes On" is the first video launched by the band in promotion of it's new studio album, "Point Of No Return".

 

Directed by Gerardo Fontenelle and produced by Manimou Produtora, "Life Goes On" makes analogy to Orwell's work when presenting its main character, Poleona, an exuberant female pig in a woman's body. Through a radical skates sport practiced only by women (Roller Derby), the video discusses topics such as war and survival in a world of contempt for minorities.

 

According to the vocalist Leo Belling, the analogy of war and woman was the perfect plot for the aesthetic result of "Life Goes On" video clip.

"The idea of the video connected directly to the song lyric that talks about the end of individualism and the need to share the desire of transformation, be yourself, follow your way with no fear. Overcoming obstacles and taboos in pursuit of perfection. Go ahead without looking back".

 

Watch now the video clip "Life Goes On" by Republica on Vevo - http://vevo.ly/pS7uDT - and also on the website of Rolling Stone magazine - http://rollingstone.uol.com.br.
