GESS releases a new video for ‘Dignity’ featuring London based musician SXMSON. The video shows GESS being treated by a sinister psychiatrist/1920s inspired asylum doctor who is using various methods to send GESS into the darkest, most tormented parts of his mind. There he’s confronted by isolation, mania, manipulation; all metaphors for the emotions felt in an unhealthy relationship. All photos by Derrick Lee @steakfries

The video was shot at FD Studios in Downtown LA. Directed by Aaron Adrian with the help of his crew – all students from the NY Film Academy in LA who volunteered their time.
