THE SEED explores the progress of growing up from youth to adulthood with it’s challenges, temptations and impalpable transitions. Shot in Ghana, the home country of aspiring rap phenomenon Serious Klein, it reflects his personal fate and is a musical meditation about the thin line between young levity and lethal risk - the line between fragile love and infinite loss.
„A seed will always grow towards the light. Sometimes it’s the light of love. Other times it’s the glow of temptation. Do you have the eyes to see?“
