Inspiring Little Short for BBC World Service

BBC The Iraqi Oil Minister from Mato Atom on Vimeo.

I came across this video while I was reviewing artist portfolios and thought it was a really well conceived little piece. Amazing and fun to marry the imagery to the voice. Especially the use of a wide, open space with the wind blowing as a back-drop for the abstractions that are placed within it! Such a sad reality this fellow has lived and to see these abstractions as a representation of the happenings outside of his cell is a truly inspired thought.
