In the year 2030, Peter Pan returns as a righteous hero defending Neverland from Hook who monopolizes technologies. But with the aid of Kia, Peter makes sure that everyone–not just the privileged few–can benefit from new technologies in the not-too-distant future.
Directed by Philippe André (who’s on the roster of production house Skunk), this three-minute epic tale, Peter Returns, is the centerpiece of a Kia Motors campaign produced by Markenfilm for agency Innocean.

The Ad Council, partnering with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF) and AdoptUSKids, launched a public service campaign, created pro bono by Edelman, which aims to inspire prospective parents to consider adopting a teen from foster care.
This centerpiece PSA titled “The Rewards”--directed by The Hudson Dusters (Michael Kuhn and Niles Roth) via Greenpoint Pictures--spotlights real adoptive families who have personally experienced the mutual benefits of adoption. This longer form PSA (and cutdown versions) begins with a touching display of openness and vulnerability as adoptive parents reflect on their adoption journeys and their initial questions and hesitations about adopting a teen. Then, in a deeply emotional turn, the adoptive parents witness their children recounting the profound rewards of adoption in their lives. The teens speak of the love they share with their parents and how the decision to become a family is reciprocal. The campaign directs viewers to the AdoptUSKids website to learn more about adopting a teen from foster care.
