Synopsis: JOLT is an experimental music video that showcases human rebellion through an underground techno aesthetic. Filled with abrupt cuts, restless movements and abstract images, Jolt takes us into a mysterious black and white world where identity and imagination coexist. Jolt invites different people to celebrate their rebellion against gender identity, self-expression and ancestral trauma through necessary actions and assumed movements. Jolt reclaims the act of celebrating rebellions without reservation, which is itself a rebellion.
