This music video, featuring singer/songwriter Connie Kaldor's Get Back the Night is an inspired statement against senseless violence. Reacting to news that her friend was stabbed for no apparent reason on the streets of Vancouver, Kaldor created the video scenario of a Moon Goddess (dancer Anne Harvie) who comes down to Earth to exterminate violence and sparks a spontaneous street carnival. The video also features Vancouver street theatre troupe The Public Dream Society. Embodying a positive and important message for a youthful audience, Get Back the Night is intended to make those who may commit violence think twice.
