Super Human - Paralympics
Award: Yellow Pencil
Yellow Pencil / Direction / Film / 2022
Inspired by human stories of vulnerability and strength, Channel 4’s Super. Human. campaign film portrayed the ruthless, grinding standards to which Paralympians hold themselves. It’s another missed party, ignoring your doctor’s advice to quit or risking re-injury, and doing the same thing over and over with the same result. That is, until they cross that finish line on the biggest stage in the world. Only then can we begin to understanding what it means and takes to be a Paralympian.
What did the judges have to say?
"I felt it was so well-created on so many levels. Original, funny and expertly crafted."
Aaron Christian, Director & Filmmaker, AC STUDIOS
