Brief Explanation

We live in a world of texts, tweets, status updates and emails but we must not forget that there is a deeper form of communication and although it sounds like common wisdom: Actions speak louder than words. HORNBACH the German DIY store puts this message back on the map with their latest TVC „Gothic girl“. In a highly iconic way this spot tells the story of exclusion and heart breaking love. By merging their main message with an emotional criticism of the ignorance and intolerance of a society judging their members in a superficial way, HORNBACH hits the nail right on the head. And gives the viewer a literal call-to-action to stand up for their beliefs and express them – with a project!
