Although he has resided in Mexico City for some time, when Christian de la Espriella, creator and leader of Pornomotor, He returns to his native Bogotá, knowing that Stepping onto the streets of the city center, the entire universe of his songs makes sense. That's where most of his words and melodies live, that's where his noise was born, and it's on that asphalt and brick where he walks. Their stories, their fears, and their emotions await him, ready to confront him.
This is how we could interpret their new video My believer. This piece, directed by Tana Vallejo and Luis Fernando Calderon, travels through the central areas of the Colombian capital, creating harsh atmospheres from different heights., narrating, with the speed of the recording, the intensity of each of the moments that pass, Leaving no room for doubt or hesitation. The unbridled passion returns to De la Espriella's memory and is captured, with the help of texts, in all the images that pass by. It is his belief, it is his loneliness, it is the evidence of his life that unfolds before the eyes of the viewer., Amidst broken editing noises, sudden acceleration changes, and photography that emphasizes every detail, without sparing the drama necessary to understand what is happening. It's a very personal song and the visual work perfectly respects that.
My believer It's part of Pornomotora's highly anticipated comeback album, which, during all this time of travel, doubts, and returns, has let the days go by. and has increased the anticipation for said material. While the process is being completed, It's nice to enjoy this great promotional product.
