The band also released a trailer for their short film, narrated by Oscar winner Dame Judi Dench. The plot of the short film reads, "Palo Santo has also become a city on a distant planet, on which human beings are a rare commodity, worshipped and idolized by an android society. Olly, along with the final humans, is recruited to perform in a series of bizarre erotic cabarets, for an artificial master known only as The Showman."
