This stunning new video for Nina Simone’s iconic track “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood” blends the artistry of hand-drawn animation with the expressive energy of contemporary dance, creating a unique and moving visual experience. Through the animated interpretation of choreographed dance, the song gains a new dimension, visually amplifying the timelessness of Simone’s honest and poignant message.

This breathtaking piece is cross-medium collaboration between animation director Nevil Bernard and contemporary dancer and choreographer Fukiko Takase. Starting the process from Takase’s filmed solo dance performance of the song , the choreography has been fully interpreted through the use of expressive animated drawings, capturing its essence in a rhythmic and free-form style.

The identity-searching protagonist’s silhouette is purposely ambiguous and anonymous to highlight the universality of the feelings manifested through Simone’s struggles and unique performance. Throughout the dance, the protagonist plays with, fights against and ultimately embraces these conflicting emotions.
