Write a short summary of what happens in the film
According to a well-known Japanese legend, children conceived under the Northern Lights are destined to become beautiful, intelligent and successful.
Based on this legend, the film takes us on a fantastic journey showing the bright future for a Japanese baby who has been conceived under the Northern Lights.
After seeing little Hiro’s conquest of the world, we end up in a local community in Northern Norway where the local people go to bed – as usual with the northern light just outside their bedroom window.
Just about time for their local bank, SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge, to tell them that the future is bright!
Cultural / Context information for the jury
SpareBanken 1 Nord-Norge is a regional bank with a rather small target group (less than 500k living in an area that covers 20% of France).
According to a well know Japanese legend about the Northern Lights we created a film aiming to engage people in the region – all living with the northern lights just outside their bedroom window.
The Northern Lights stretch along the coast of Northern Norway (Nord-Norge) from Lofoten towards the northernmost point – Nordkapp. This means that the area covered by the local bank SpareBank1 Nord-Norge is perfectly suited for observing this phenomenon, and here it is more Northern Lights than any other place on the earth.
Since the target group is quite small, we established great reach and created a conversation that covered a large majority of the adult target group just by using Facebook and local cinemas.
Please tell us about the brand in relation to the locality or market where the product / service is distributed
According to a well-known Japanese legend, children conceived under the Northern Lights are destined to become beautiful, intelligent and successful.
Based on this legend, local bank SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge, wished to show everyone living in Northern Norway which possibilities stem from living in the region where the magic light just happens outside their bedroom windows. It’s also a great way to remind them about the special connection between the bank and all the people in the region, who own a piece of the bank through a historical foundation.
SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge is known for its local focus, always aiding the region towards releasing its potential, as stated in their brand vision “When it’s good for Northern Norway, it’s good for SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge.” And more fantastic people being conceived in the region is definitely good for all!
