Reem Bader's Rayya

I'm a little late on blogging about this video since we saw it last week, but I definitely enjoyed the parts that had a split screen showing a car driving and people talking with no audio. It gave the visuals a serene quality but also a feeling of uneasiness. This also occurred when there was audio with no visuals. The speaking started to blend together and I started focusing less on the words and more on the black emptiness of the screen. The dance sequence seemed interesting, but since we didn't see the video all the way through, it seemed a little out of place. Maybe it would work well integrated throughout the entire video, but she probably explains the dance at some point in the film.
