Write a short summary of what happens in the film

On the surface, the campaign may be about different and absurd work scenarios, but deep inside it’s about the courage and lightness that our characters are about to find in themselves, thanks to HP.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

For this campaign, we tapped into a powerful, local cultural truth - that Germans are resistant to change. In a light-hearted way, we portrayed Thinkpad users as reluctant to try new things, persuading German IT decision makers to give change a chance and switch to the far superior HP Notebooks.
