The Ukrainian band ONUKA has made its sixth music video dedicated to the beauty of the world around us. To send this message, different costumes and national elements typical of different cultures of the world are used in the video: Ukrainian, Mexican, Japanese, African, while retaining in each of them the Ukrainian ethnic motifs.
"I was aiming to create something like an old Ukrainian ritual song of a spellbound character. Light, sunny and life-affirming. To sing about the beauty of the world we live in, despite all it's flaws and contradictions".
Nata Zhyzhchenko, band leader.

All the materials used to make the costumes for the ONUKA band clip are recycled, purchased in second-hand stores in Kiev. The band has become a great example of the sustainable fashion movement, an ethical attitude towards fashion in the current context of caring for the environment.
Thanks to the costumes and the location, the video has a fairytale atmosphere, where shamans converge with the mountains, rivers and fields to the sound of music. The video is meant to be an invitation to stop and enjoy the moment: "Make a stop for a second. Find your direction while the sun is at it's zenith."

Lyrics.-
There, where the mountains are high I fly freely
There, where the water is deep I swim freely
I fly freely in the sky
My melody is strong
There, where the mountains are high I fly freely
There, where the water is deep I swim freely
I fly in the sky
I fly in the sky
I fly in the sky
My melody
My melody
The wind freezes, as the sun rises at its zenith
And I am me
There, where the water is deep I swim freely
I fly freely in the sky
My melody is strong
There, where the mountains are high I fly freely
There, where the water is deep I swim freely
I fly in the sky
I fly in the sky
I fly in the sky
My melody
My melody
The wind freezes, as the sun rises at its zenith
And I am me
