A man is shadowed through the city by a giant robot who provides a helping hand along the way. This guy is the master of his own domain as he takes over the town–until another fellow comes walking toward him with his own robot in tow. Each giant bot picks up its master and a battle royal between the two ensues, reflecting the action in the video game Titanfall.

The Best Work You May Never See: Steve Rogers Directs Christmas Spot For Telstra Starring A Singing Donkey
Directed by Steve Rogers via production house Revolver, this 90-second Christmas film for Aussie telecommunications company Telstra--created by agency Bear Meets Eagle On Fire in tandem with +61--tells the story of an accidental singing superstar, Little Donkey, who goes on a whirlwind tour across the world. But eventually stardom isn't all it's cracked up to be as Little Donkey misses its family at holiday time.
“We wanted to tell a Christmas story without falling into the holiday cliches. Hopefully the heart of this rings true and people get a bit of giggle along the way,” said Micah Walker, chief creative officer at Bear Meets Eagle On Fire.
Blake Crosbie, managing director of +61, said, “It’s a charming story that is so true of Christmas and so naturally adds to our brand idea ‘Wherever We Go’.”
