La Vida Boheme (Henry D'Arthenay, Daniel de Sousa, Sebastián
Ayala and Rafael Pérez Medina) complement their rock ballad with a cartoon
drawn in the old-school Steamboat Willie
that tells a familiar story. By doing the classics, and doing them well, La
Vida Boheme creates an enduring film soundtracked by their Flamingo.
The band chooses to tell an uplifting story about death and
rebirth. The use of childlike, familiar imagery and contrasts between light and
dark, color and monochrome emphasize the narrative content. It goes to show
that sometimes the old ways are the best ways.
By using highly accessible techniques to tell a story
intimately familiar to anyone with a passing knowledge of Christian mythology,
La Vida Boheme have created a modern classic.
