Heath Ledger developed an idea to direct a video for the song ‘King Rat’. Heath Ledger’s vision, brave and unapologetic in its nature, brings together his love of bold and original music with his impassioned stance against the illegal commercial whale hunts taking place of the coast of Australia each year.
The video was fully conceived down to the last detail by Heath, but unfinished when Heath passed away in January of 2008. In the interest of fully realizing Heath’s final work as a visual artist, THE MASSES (a film and music company which Heath was a partner) finished the video in his honor and memory.
Make sure you watch the video until the end credits.
