“Sacrifice” is a music video shot in 16mm film, that unravels the concept of grief, catharsis, love and reparation of a couple devastated by loss. We see Rojo, a street fighter, and Baby, a dancer, struggling with grief over the death of their son and fighting to stay together despite the deep pain that traverses them. This piece seeks to represent the characters in their most vulnerable states: exposed and trying to redeem themselves. Showing each other their love in its most organic forms, in all the dimensions of their sacrifice.
