#YouShall Find Your Fairytale Christmas
One contemporary Cinderella and one contemporary Prince Charming cross eyes in the train. Sparks are flying, doors are opening, the gap between the platform and the train is not the only one in this story. But thanks to Ewan McGregor and a few hashtags, the two leading actors end up together, which gets us to the key message of the campaign: to find our very own fairytale Christmas.
Vodafone
A Christmas Love Story
Another love story in several different short films, starring Martin Freeman? Yes, please! Dr. Watson, a.k.a. Martin, chitchats with a mysterious woman on a bench and ends up in a happy long-distance relationship with her. How is that possible, one might ask? Thanks to Vodafone, of course!
H&M
A Magical Holiday
SuperDad Jesse Wiliams tells a very odd bedtime story to his daughter. Its plot demands that the little girl finds Santa’s evil twin brother, who stole all the presents for Christmas. Mythical land and a lot of amazing outfits are just an addition to the fairy story. Did we mention that the mother in this ad is played by Nicky Minaj?
