Bianca Censori Makes Directorial Debut With Ye’s 'Father' Video

The surreal, single-take church piece moves her from partner to credited creative in Ye’s album rollout.

Overview

  • Censori directed the music video for Ye’s track Father, featuring Travis Scott, marking her first credited filmmaking work.
  • The three-minute clip unfolds in one continuous shot inside a church set that reads as a dreamlike stage.
  • Symbolic and dystopian images fill the frame, including a spaceship, a sleeping nun taken by police, and interchangeable portrayals of Ye and Scott.
  • In a prepared statement, Censori described the church as a surreal environment where time slows and spatial logic breaks.
  • The release raises new questions about authorship as it boosts her public creative profile, following scrutiny and a Vanity Fair profile that emphasized her independence.
