Australia-born singer/songwriter Sia Furler has released a new video for "Never Give Up", the song she penned for the "Lion" soundtrack. Even though it is a lyric video, the clip still features everything that's typically found in her videos, including young dancers who don Sia's signature two-toned wigs.
The clip, which was released on Tuesday, January 3, follows two kids whose faces are covered by all-black masks. They are searching for each other in a creepy abandoned train station while the lyrics appear on the railway tracks, station's siding and more. As Sia belts out the song, the kids reunite to find a way out.
The inspiration behind the Greg Kurstin-directed video came from "Lion", the Golden Globe-nominated film based on Saroo Brierly's memoir "A Long Way Home". At age five, Brierly was separated from his family at a train station in India. Twenty five years later, he embarked on a new journey to find his birth mother using Google Earth.
Dev Patel is attached to portray Saroo Brierly, while Nicole Kidman is cast as his adoptive mother Sue Brierley. "Van Helsing" star David Wenham has also joined the cast as John Brierly, while Rooney Mara portrays Lucy, Brierly's girlfriend. "Lion" is out now in theaters.
