Hip hop outfit Hilltop Hoods has partnered with R/GA Sydney and Google Play Music to create an interactive film for ‘Through the Dark’, a song written by the group’s Dan Smith as his son underwent treatment for leukemia.

The film combines mobile and digital technology to explore a father and son’s journey, with the use of dark colours illustrating fear, while light represents hope.
