War and Peace Video: It Begins with a Book

Written By Tim Lane

Overview

For Penguins 2020 Christmas campaign, I conceived and directed this advert, telling the story of Sandra's love of the classic book, War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy. By overcoming the stigma attached with reading such a famously difficult text, Sandra felt empowered to be a better mother. This story shows that all change, big or small, can start by reading a book.
