Write a short summary of what happens in the film

Since the V60 is a typical family car, and Volvo – at least traditionally – is a typical family brand, it felt natural to let the campaign center around family. But just like Volvo has changed over the years, the idea of what a family is and can be has changed as well. In a way, it’s up to each and everyone of us to decide who or what we consider family. So we decided to let these short films become portraits of different types of families and relationships. 10 second stories about what family can mean in 2018. With real families, no actors. Most other brands that has embraced short format videos has either made a joke about the short length of the films or made fun of the ”skip button”. But we wanted to fill these short vignettes with stories that are way bigger than just 10 seconds.
