Write a short summary of what happens in the film
Dad brings his son to the lake. and starts to drown him in the water. Other parents join in with their children. Voiceover at the end says: By not taking care of your children's ability to swim - aren't we drowning them ourselves?
Cultural / Context information for the jury
Around 600 people drown in water each year in Lithuania. Most of them children. However parents don't take this issue seriously enough. With this campaign we were trying to provoke a reaction in the minds of co called passive parents and accuse them. When the ad aired on national television it provoke a lot of reactions - mostly blaming it to be too cruel, too straightforward and inappropriate. But that was our intention.
