The story

What Is Mantrap About?

The premise of Mantrap without spoilers.

A long‑form music video starring the British pop group ABC, it weaves tracks from their album The Lexicon of Love into a spy‑caper narrative. The unsuspecting frontman Martin Fry is recruited because he looks exactly like a man involved in espionage, and he must discover the deception before it’s too late.
