Guadagino describes the different elements that went into creating the video.

“The aching feeling of loving and wanting to be loved, the mystery of bodies that clash, the uncanny aspects of nature, the sublime music poetry and voice of Sufjan—all this went into this video that I am proud to have made with the collaboration of two more great artists, Alessio Bolzoni and Celia Hempton.”

The Ascension, Sufjan’s eighth studio album, was released in September on Asthmatic Kitty Records and continues to receive critical acclaim.

While Guadagnino has expressed interest in directing a film version of Find Me, André Aciman follow up to Call Me By Your Name, he has a lot of film projects on the boil. Next up he’s directing an adaptation of the novel Bones and All which might reunite him with Timothée Chalamet.
