A promotional video for Mute/EMI band 'The Mountaineers'. The video was shown on MTV2, The Box amongst other music channels.

 

The video tells the the Czech fairy tale of Little Otik compressed into less than 4 minutes. A couple long for a child. The man carves a tree stump into the shape of a child and presents it to his wife as a consolation. The wooden child comes to life and demands to be fed. What follows could possibly put you off children for life.
