Earlier this year we reported that pop-rock band Mr.Children will be releasing a brand new album titled “SOUNDTRACKS” on December 2nd. While there are still a few weeks before its street date, the band have chosen to publish the music video for the record’s sixth track “Documentary film” to their YouTube channel.

Directed by OSRIN of PERIMETRON – who have also handled all of the visuals for this album – this PV combines two different styles of animation with live action shots in order to convey an affecting story. In particular, the clip focuses on the concept of memory and both its recording and degradation over time.

Read on below to find not only the full music video for “Documentary film”, but also a trailer for “SOUNDTRACKS”.
