Same-sex domestic violence explored in powerful new music video

Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Tom Goss has just released his latest video. He told Huffington Post that “La Bufadora”, was inspired by a trip to Mexico with his husband.

Whilst there, he saw La Bufadora: a marine geyser or blowhole located on the Punta Banda Peninsula in Baja California, Mexico. When the ocean slams into the rocks, it shoots up from the opening in a spectacular explosion.

The phenomenon reminded Goss of how arguments in relationships can explode – sometimes spilling over into domestic violence.

For the video, Goss recruited actor Daniel Franzese to play his fictional partner. The two men are shown enjoying good times but also arguing, with Franzese at one point grabbing Goss by the throat.

I am including the video, but the article issued a "trigger warning" so take it to heart.
