2025 Video Editorial note
Malapropism
Language English
Official video; English lyrics published in artist's description.
Karshni's self-directed music video uses Amiya Bhanushali's shibari alongside distorted images to address consent and the language used to minimize harm.
Editorial note
Rope is a deliberate contrast to the song's subject: the video foregrounds a chosen, negotiated experience against language that obscures coercion. Karshni wrote, directed and edited the film as well as performing the song.
