to go with a very well-made short film.
The video begins with a young boy running away from an imposing bleached-white structure. Is it a School? An Orphanage? A Prison? He continues this headlong flight, in his schoolboy-like attire: short pants, suit-coat and with a book bag strapped to his back; his little legs pumping furiously to carry him away at maximum speed. The lad has a most determined look on his dust-covered face as he makes his way around and over numerous obstacles in his path, rocks, boulders, roots and tree branches.
One of these branches catches the boy's foot and sends him sprawling on the ground. Just then we see a fearsome-looking horned beast arising from up out of the earth and rushing in the young man's direction. Quickly the creature closes the gap, as our hero struggles to get back to his feet. He is not fast enough, however, and the hairy monster is upon him, now; but instead of the supposed rending and tearing of the young boy's fragile body, we see the 7-foot tall beast scoop the child up from the earth and carry him under his powerful arm, continuing the hasty flight that was in progress.
After a while the monster tosses the lad ahead of him and the boy quickly lands on solid ground to resume the trek. The beast then motions from behind him and we see others of his kind arising out of the dirt to join in the exodus, many larger than the first one, with some being veritable giants. It is apparent that they mean the boy no harm, instead supplying him with a sword and shield, and a horned helmet, which, once donned, makes him look like a smaller version of one of their number.
Joined by more and more of the creatures, the boy is soon leading a sizable army toward a gleaming white city of skyscrapers, their eventual goal. Our protagonist is seen giving a rallying cry to his troops to move onward, and a look of hopefulness is mixed in with the determination on his young face.
