Christian Aid: advert-top-1 by Christian Aid

Christian Aid has launched ‘A Stranger Christmas Story’, a short stop-frame animation film inspired by the popular Netflix TV show Stranger Things, to highlight the 65 million people who are displaced by conflict and disaster this Christmas.

The film, directed by Rebecca Gower, features animation based on characters from Stranger Things, but also pays homage to the Nativity. It’s a Christmas story mash-up with Christmas lights at the centre of the action, a nod to both Stranger Things and the charity’s Christmas appeal ‘Light the Way’. The appeal aims to offer a beacon of hope for those who’ve fled their homes in search of safety.
