Giangrande “Free to Roam” Stop Motion Music Video

Italian director, animator, and puppet maker Gianluca Maruotti brings his talent for peculiar and lovable characters to this meticulous stop-motion video for the track “Free to Roam” from Massimo Giangrande’s new album Beauty at Closing Time.

“In times of pain and fear the pursuit of beauty can feel like a refuge. The entire album is dominated by cinematic atmospheres, together with its warmly retro-sound giving space to emotional and troubled moments. The music makes space for him to ache.”
