Opening on a rural highway diner, transitioning into scenes of grifters hitchhiking, staying in shitty motels, road tripping in classic cars and, finally, ending with the video’s lead female hopping on a motorcycle piloted by a man wearing a Confederate-flag helmet, the short film for William Tyler‘s “A Portrait Of Sarah” is distinctly American, much like his own guitar-driven Americana. The clip meanders from scene to scene without much of a plot, reflective of the seven-minute instrumental track. And the song really functions more as a background music than the focus. Sounds of cars and dialogue are overpowering at points, but maybe that’s the point of Tyler’s music. Watch the video below.
