Stromae - Fils De Joie

Award: Graphite Pencil

Graphite Pencil / Direction / Music Videos / 2022

Award: Wood Pencil

Wood Pencil / Production Design / Music Videos

The music video for Fils de Joie by Stromae paid tribute to sex workers and their children. Taking place in an imaginary country, the video depicts the glorious funeral of a national heroine, a courtesan. As the head of these proceedings, Stromae stands on his podium, salutes the regiments and honours the much-loved courtesan with a harrowing and, to say the least, moving speech before a silent audience. Shot in Brussels, Stromae’s hometown, this monumental music video brought together more than 500 extras and dancers for this solemn but celebratory tribute.
