Harkin - new single and short film video "Driving Down A Flight Of Stairs"

With album 'Honeymoon Suite' out June 17th via Hand Mirror, Harkin shares her new single from the album "Driving Down A Flight Of Stairs" alongside a short film directed by Dejan Mrkic for the 11-minute instrumental album closer.

The director Dejan Mrkic heard the track and asked if he could pair it with some footage he’d shot in LA, which I thought was so beautiful and matched the expansive stillness of the track. In his words, “we reverse engineered the more traditional way of making a music video”. I was seeking peace and communal experience when I composed this track in lockdown. The geographically remote collaboration of this video feels like my call for that has been answered." Harkin

"The film follows a 10-year-old child (played by newcomer Ava Zane) as she searches for her presumed father in Los Angeles before she is picked up by her mother. It’s a meditation on childhood. The fluid camerawork by cinematographer Hayden Mason is complimented by BAFTA-winner Livia Ruzic’s distorted diegetic sounds to give the audience a hyper subjective experience.” Dejan Mrkic
