Sampha affida la sua Can’t Go Back a Saad Moosajee. A livello tematico, il video sembra in un certo senso partire dal precedente Time Travels Memories, sorta di album trailer diretto dallo stesso Sampha assieme a Caleb Femi: il viaggio temporale e la relazione con le proprie radici qui si concretizzano nella creazione di una dimensione altra, (quasi totalmente) in bianco e nero e sospesa in un’eclissi. Una soglia dove sogno e memoria sfumano uno nell’altra e in cui Sampha ha l’ambiguo ruolo di spettatore e demiurgo. Segnaliamo che su Promonews potete trovare un’interessante nota del regista.
