Paris holds a special place in my heart. Yet criss-crossing this majestic city on the metro is to deny yourself one undeniable thing. The passion of Paris Overground.

A Sunday morning walk from the brutal modernity of La Villette to the splendour of Les Invalides, via the hipster pastiche of St. Martin. All the images were salvaged from an old mobile phone, retouched and combined into a short film encouraging us to look up, not down.

Accompanied by music from Broken Social Scene, this short film is also my first foray into hand-drawn video effects and animations.

Paris, c'est a vous.

"The ghostly movement of the Parisian tribes. Watch the crowd rushing out in the spring night towards the urban deserts of La Villette."
