The challenge to live

Posted by on Wednesday, August 1, 2007 · 3 Comments 

The two of my most favorite (and heartbreakingly touching) awareness ads for cancer make me feel strangely heavy. I really hope that the cure for cancer comes along soon. Real soon.


Peruvian Cancer Foundation – The magic of giving (1:29)


Ninos con Cancer – Gesto de Amor (0:50)

Both these ads made it big at the Cannes Film festival. Turn on your speakers, the accompanying music is superb.

    The first one is brilliant. It truly embodies what an ad should be – tell a story without any words. And yes, amen to your last statement
