Overview

Description

We decided to break gender stereotypes, by demonstrating that men have a right to be cared for. And the New Year period is just the right time to do so.

We called on Russians to appreciate the worthy ones and the film exploded on the Russian Internet.

Execution

The protagonist has made sure that ships navigate a patch of dangerous coastal waters safely over a period of many years as the lighthouse steadfastly lights the way for them. However no sailor has ever seen the lighthouse keeper.

Thanks to Ferrero Rocher we witness a little miracle just before Christmas as the lighthouse keeper gets to see a few of the people he has been working to keep safe over the years…
