Partially set in the 1950s to 19060s, Wilde noted that Josef von Sternberg's American pre-Code film Shanghai Express (1932) served as an inspiration for the video, particularly several scenes in which actress Marlene Dietrich is depicted. According to Lwowski, Keleti station was selected as the video's main filming location not only due to budget concerns but also due to its architecure. In the clip, Connor returns to a place from her childhood. Connor's sister, singer Sophia-Luisa "Lulu" Lewe, portrays a younger version of the singer.
