The video shows a group of women in large bubbles and giant red legs and figures wearing mismatched color clothing dancing erratically, with flashing colored lights illuminating them. They all dance around an ice sculpture of a young boy and girl, which is slowly melting due to a rising flame. The video prominently features the Brooklyn-based FLEX dance crew.
