Following his confirmation of two live shows for this December, Mika has unveiled a short film to accompany the release of his forthcoming new album 'The Origin Of Love'. The film, which shares the same title as the album, is a film by Mika and Cristián Jiménez, shot in Santiago, Chile.
About the film, Mika said: “This latest short film is a collaboration with the Chilean director Cristián Jiménez. After seeing his film Bonsai, this seemed like an exciting match. I wanted to take the kaleidoscopic dreaminess of the song and pair it up with Cristián’s more realistic, surreal and moving imagery. When making these films, I give complete freedom to the director we are collaborating with, in a way that is never possible with a music video. This short film was made in Santiago with Cristián’s close team and friends, and with a lot of love. I hope that watching someone else's visual reaction to the song is as surprising and moving for you as it was for me.”
Cristián commented: "I was very excited when Mika got in touch about this. The song is fantastic, it almost feels like you can touch it. I tried to do something that adds more layers to that texture. It's an urban, very contemporary piece, with a bit of humour and touches of a fairy tale feel. I hope Mika's fans will connect and imagine a broader world beyond."

Mika has announced details of two new shows at Manchester's HMV Ritz and Glasgow's O2 ABC this December.
