The music video script summarizes the scenes and shots planned for Avicii's song "Hey Brother". It is divided into 15 sections from 0-7:30 minutes. The video will be in black and white and follow a brother and sister as they walk around town separately with their identities concealed by hoods. They eventually meet up and walk together to an abandoned house. The shots are planned to match the beats and lyrics of the song, with the video ending as the camera fades to black inside the abandoned house.
