Tinder sticks: Hey Lucinda
Film by Joe King & Rosie Pedlow
Colourist: Jason R Moffat
Tindersticks "Hey Lucinda" from new album 'The Waiting Room'
Release date: 22 January 2016
Note from singer / song writer Stuart Staples:
"Memory of a Free Festival" is a 1970 single by David Bowie. The song had originally been recorded in September 1969 as a seven-minute opus for Bowie's second self-titled album (reissued as Space Oddity in 1972). It was reworked in March-April 1970 at the behest of Mercury Records, the label believing that the track had a better chance of success as a single than "The Prettiest Star", released earlier in the year. Bowie and Tony Visconti roughly split the track in half, re-recording it so both halves could function as individual songs.

Wax is part of a series that discusses the objectification of women in pop art and media through a visual arts campaign. The film will be screened at the London Short Film Festival 2016 (details below).
About the film:
The visual aspect of the video is arranged to appear at first as a conventional or commonly stylised 'fashion film', but as the narrative of both the music and subtitled lyrics develop, the underlying darkness and meaning of the film is revealed, descending into extreme objectification towards the end.
