Volvo: advert-top-1 by Valenstein and Fatt (formerly known as Grey London)
- Location:
Volvo has released two films under the banner of its current brand platform, Human Made, to tell anthropocentric stories as part of its Sky Atlantic sponsorship.
‘Nemo’s Garden’, focuses on a father and son duo who have devised a way to grow crops on the ocean bed as a solution to a lack of viable farmland. Dotted with picturesque shots of the ocean and the Italian countryside, the film charts the family’s bizarre ambition of growing basil underwater.
The second film, entitled ‘Music of the Mind’, follows young violinist Rosie, who is left without the ability to play her instrument after an accident leaves her almost entirely paralysed. We see technology developed by Professor Eduardo Miranda allow a computer to read her brain patterns that are stimulated when she composes music, hence reopening the doors to orchestral life for Rosie.
