RAGE 30: ENTER YOUR PLAYLIST: My Choices !

The Australian Music Video program Rage is celebrating its 30th year. They asked for public submissions, of 5 clips, and a reason why you picked them. Here is my submission (closes on April 7th):

These are all mesmerising (and underrated?) story-telling clips that leave you shaken, or highly reflective, at the end. 

The stories here are about the potentially fragile relationships between your friends, close family, juxtaposed to your perception of reality. Other people, including yourself, are valuable things. Sometimes there are consequences to your actions, and sometimes fate does things that are out of your control. Sometimes people are unhinged, or become so. Live well and be kind to each other is the message I get out of these videos. Don't take things for granted.

I hope you enjoy the clips, they're excellent.
