Scott Corbett of Holiday Films, Toronto, directed this spot which places a woman in an elevator–except she’s driving an amusement park bumper car within the tightly confined space, which also includes a cramped male elevator passenger.

Developed as part of the Ad Council’s partnership with the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and created pro bono by agency StrawberryFrog, this public service campaign underscores the vital role young people can play in reversing opioid overdoses by carrying naloxone (often branded as Narcan or ReVive).
Directed by Haya Waseem via production company Object & Animal, this “It’s Gotta Be You” PSA shows how a girl answers the call to help save another young person.
