Director Spike Jonze has unveiled a wild four-minute perfume advertisement that stars actress Margaret Qualley.

The star of HBO's "The Leftovers" spends the video dancing, jumping, kicking and flailing her arms while moving around a fancy venue. At one point Qualley destroys objects with lasers shooting out of her fingertips.

The advertisement is for a new perfume from France's Kenzo brand, but doesn't include any apparent reference to the scent.

In addition to movies such as "Being John Malkovich" and "Her," Jones has directed numerous music videos. The ad brings to mind Jonze's 2001 video for Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice," which starred Christopher Walken bizarrely dancing around an empty hotel.
