Irish rock group U2 have released a short film directed by Aoife McArdle, for their latest single "Every Breaking Wave".
Set on the streets early 80s Northern Ireland, Every Breaking Wave is built around themes of emotional abandon and the uncertainty of romantic relationships. It follows two teenagers who fall in love amidst ongoing violence.
The short film's emotional core is centered around "Every Breaking Wave" and "The Troubles," two tracks drawn from U2's most recent album 'Songs of Innocence'.
