Cez hory späť domov, lyric video sample

Style and material

A calm Slovak song about the path back over the mountains: morning cold and white air, a familiar doorstep, a rucksack set down while the noise falls quiet, a steady step under an old spruce and a piece of bread from mum in the palm. That is the song “Cez hory späť domov”. The mood is quiet and warm. A riso-printed mountain world in orange, pink and teal: printed ridges with a walking stick, a stone cairn, a wooden signpost and a gentian flower; a teal slate slab with a steel thermos, an enamel mug, wool mittens and a knitted hat; a cream door with a stone step, an iron key, a tin lantern, felt slippers and a clay jug; an orange rucksack on navy porch boards with a sleeping mat, an apple, wool socks and a brass compass; pale planks with a spruce twig, a pine cone, hiking boots and a felt hat; and printed ridges again with a slice of bread, a honey jar and a rye loaf. Every sung line is lettered in a different material: navy ink, white chalk, brush paint, stamped ink and letters carved into the planks. The scenes were chosen from the words of the song, such as the path over the ridges, the morning cold, the doorstep, the rucksack, the old spruce and the bread from mum.
