The Sound of Hope - Voices of Humanity
Agency: VML Copenhagen
Description
Continuing the success of last year’s campaign, The Sound of Hope documentary, directed by Kai Sehr, seeks to uncover how voices lost to trauma find their way back with unwavering assistance from EU’s humanitarian aid workers on the ground.
The film introduces three humanitarian aid workers in Syria, Haiti, and Burundi as they provide lifesaving aid to people in need. The film also spotlights the beneficiaries, who in their own words reveal how the aid has impacted their lives and how music helps keep their hope for a better tomorrow alive.
WPP Production and VML Copenhagen are honoured to have helped bring these important stories to light with The Directorate-General for European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (DG-ECHO) and are thankful to have worked with the best in business, including collaborations with 27km Entertainment GmbH, Ogilvy Social.Lab Brussels and Verian.
