Hjaltalin - Sweet Impressions


 This video, directed by Arni Thor Josson, seems to represent the way people feel they need to change themselves to be more attractive in relationships when, in reality, it doesn't matter. It sees a man giving himself what seems to be home plastic surgery after assesing various images of male models from magazines, then going out with his bandages on, meeting a woman and going back to her house. Along the way, they are cheered on by other people with bandages around their heads. After sleeping with her, the man wakes up to see her by the window with bandages on herself - suggesting she has done the same thing for him.
 The video is interesting in that it communicates a strong message to audiences. There seems to be a blue filter on the footage, helping portray the underlying sadness in what is going on.
