Write a short summary of what happens in the film
For the release of the video game Just Dance 2019, Ubisoft reveals the true reason why we all love dancing.
From the oldest to the youngest, and even those that haven’t been born yet, everyone has a beat inside them; a heartbeat. We are all driven by this rhythm waiting to get out. The spot starts with a couple in their 70’s in a retirement home, and moves back through different generations of dancers, each getting younger and younger, and each connected by the same human rhythm we all share.
Finally, the spot brings us to where it all starts; a baby who hasn’t’ even been born, but still shares this beat.
As the rhythm of Britney’s “Work work” synchronizes with the baby’s heartbeat, the punchline appears:
“It all starts with a beat”.
Cultural/Context information for the jury
The idea for the campaign came from an insight about dancing: that it’s in our innate human nature.
All humans have it, and it unites people from every group. For the release of Just Dance 2019, we wanted to create a film in celebration of this curious truth. That dancing is universal and crosses all generations and cultures. From the old, to the young, to those still in the womb. No matter your walk of life or your culture, we are more alike than different because we’re all driven by this beat inside us waiting to get out. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a great dancer or an average one, what really matters is the desire to express yourself and connect with the collective beat of humanity.
