PJ Harvey and actor Ruth Wilson have collaborated on a new video for Harvey’s latest single “Seem an I”. The video was created by Oscar-nominated Irish screenwriter and director Colm Bairéad, shot at Kennel Farm outside Salisbury, Wiltshire.

On working with Ruth Wilson and Colm Bairéad, PJ Harvey says:

“Ruth and I became friends after working together on Clio Barnard’s film Dark River. I have always greatly admired Ruth’s work as an actor, so had long harboured a dream that we might work together again in some way. When the opportunity to work with Colm Bairéad came up I knew him to be a director Ruth thought highly of, as I did, so it felt right to ask her if she would star in the film. I find the resulting short film beautiful and moving for having Ruth’s magical presence, and Colm’s unique vision.”

Ruth Wilson adds: “I have always been a huge fan of PJ, so it was a great privilege to work alongside Colm and Polly to bring “Seem an I” to visual life in this mysterious and hypnotic short film. There is no better way to spend a day in the magical world of PJ Harvey.”
