Mika unveils 'Origin Of Love' short film - video

Mika has unveiled a new short film online.

The singer has teamed up with director Cristián Jiménez to create a visual for his new song 'Origin Of Love', which serves as the title track for his upcoming album.



"This latest short film is a collaboration with the Chilean director Cristián Jiménez," Mika explained. "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."

Mika's third studio album The Origin Of Love will be released in the UK on October 8.

The collection will be preceded by new single 'Celebrate', which features Pharrell Williams.
