theatrics. We’ve always loved
the highs and lows, and the drama. In our music videos we try to
tell these grand stories that are
culturally relevant. My brother
Ben, actually, is a filmmaker.
Growing up, Luke and I would
always do music, and Ben and
I would always be involved in
films together. So, I don’t know
why Luke was always the first to
be killed off in these little short
films or whatever. (laughing)
Nonetheless, as we went along
on for King and Country’s journey, it has always been a dream
for Ben and I to make a film. But
we wanted to make the right film
with the right purpose. We knew
enough to know the financial
strain, the physical strain, and
what it takes to make a film.
So, about two years ago, I went
to him and said, “Hey, Ben, since
the beginning of the band, we’ve

been sharing about this crisis
movement charging men to be
chivalrous in how we love, and
celebrating a woman’s worth. It
has been alarming and thrilling at
the same time to see how people
have responded to this. People
have responded so overwhelmingly, and at the same time.
Ben said, “Man, I so love this
idea!”

(Ben) referenced a documentary
that he had edited a few years
prior, and there was an important
component in it that they could
pull a lot of information from.
They could “marry” it to the sentiment of the Priceless movie.
It has been a really passion project for all of us. I was the writer
in the synopsis of the story, and
Luke as well. Me as an actor,
Luke as a producer, and Ben,
obviously, as the director- it
was something that we are just
thrilled to see come to life. It
came to life in a really gritty, honest, yet hopefully God willing,
still inspirational way.
(laughing) Gritty is definitely
the way I would describe it.
Yet I don’t know if it would
have an impact any other way.
