Enter The Afro-Futuristic World of 2023

2023 is a film inspired by the powerful and emotive music of Alxndr London. In its essence it is a visual representation of the soundscape in the artist’s EP, 2023, futuristic in design yet at it’s core very raw, emotive and spiritual. The self proclaimed afrofuturist artist marries together different sounds to create fragmented experimental electronica.

Accompanying the style of the acoustic, the film is set in a futuristic landscape, grounded in a sense of realism, deep in the heart of a familiar city, with almost recognisable landscapes, yet not obvious as to what place specifically. We follow one person and their journey through these dark and moody settings in this modernised world.
