MAYA is an animated music video on the track - 'I Can't Wait', by Siames, an Argentinian electro-pop rock band. In early 2020, we had an idea of a man trekking through mountains, streams and caves in search of the voice haunting his dreams and visions. We wanted to work on something more heavy on art and environment, and thought this would be a great challenge for us. Since we wanted have complete creative control over the project, we decided to develop the idea further and produce it independently. 

The film directed by Arvind Jeena and assisted by Ashish Phadke - delves into a fantasty world of strange lands mystical forests.
