OVERVIEW

Description

This is a brilliantly funny and dark spoof Action Man ad. Starring Matt Berry; the seemingly innocent ad for everyones favourite action figure gradually gets darker and darker- drawing our attention to the real subject matter behind the piece- the startlingly young age children are able to become soldiers. Masked in dark comedy the message gradually becomes apparent and, as the audience is subjected to a medley of callous scenarios, the severity of the situation really hits home.
