Her movements are initially tentative, reflective of her uncertainty, but they grow more confident and expressive, mirroring the build-up in the music. Throughout the video, natural elements such as water, wind, and earth serve as metaphors for her emotional states. Water, for instance, represents both reflection and cleansing as she confronts her past struggles and begins to let go. The wind suggests change...
