Remember when Drake was in the country in July, and frankly, no one knew exactly what he was here to do? Well, the secret is finally out! He was in South Africa to shoot a newly-released Views-inspired short film, titled Please Forgive Me.

Starring Drake in the lead role, the 23-minute clip which dropped on Monday as an Apple Music exclusive is an action-packed mix of Indecent ProposalThe Bourne Identity and Taken.

It includes seven songs from Views with original music from Noah "40" Shebib. 

Please Forgive Me was filmed in a single week in Soweto in July before the start of Drake and Future's Summer Sixteen Tour. It also serves as only the second visual to emerge from the release of Views. Apart fromthe music video for Child's Play and Hotline Bling (bonus track), Drake hasn't put out videos for any of the other singles from the album.

Watch the trailer for the movie below:
