A gorgeous and emotional docu-style music video directed by Rahim Moledina for Ben Watt’s “Hendra”, portraying the daily universe of an Asian shopkeeper.

from the press-release

Filmed in east London on a shoestring budget – and inspired by the lyrics of Watt’s simple folk song about the dreams of his late sister, a rural postmistress and shopkeeper – the film unsentimentally yet tenderly transposes the action and depicts a day in the life of a shopkeeper.

The music  video received high praise from film-critic and director of ‘The Story of Film: An Odyssey”, Mark Cousins, being called “a mini-masterpiece”
