This piece of work was created as both a stand alone short film and as a visual accompaniment to her most recent single ‘Black Molasses’. Produced by Tim Bell – the track was written and performed by Scarlett and features lyrics and a musical composition which focus on the large issues surrounding the health of planet Earth. A poignant message delivered through a beautiful and cinematic ballad.
