The campaign reaffirms Evians vision of youth: a positive and universal value, carried by each and every one of us, no matter the years.
Baby & Me - the film
Everything starts with an encounter: walking down the street, a man comes face to face with his reflection in the mirror but in a baby version of himself. Several characters around him also live the same bewildering experience.
Each of them starts playing with their baby-self : being connected in this way with their interior youth creates a feeling of freedom, of letting go, a spontaneous and communicative frenzy And the playing turns into dancing, on the cult song Here comes the Hotstepper remixed by Yuksek for Evian.
Watch 'Baby & Me' below:
Baby & Me - the poster campaign
On a parallel path with the film, an eventful campaign will stage this encounter on posters. In France, starting May 15th, some subway platforms will be invaded by 10 portraits of characters of various ages and kinds, discovering with astonishment their baby-self on the other side of the platforms, with a mirror effect.
Among them, two famous faces: the tennis champion Maria Sharapova and the talented golfer Melissa Reid.
Baby & Me - the app
For everyone to be able to meet their baby-self too, BETC Digital and B-Reel developed a digital app.
