Brief Explanation

It’s hard to make sense of something as indiscriminate as cancer. That’s why we need young researchers full of fresh ideas and imaginative solutions if there’s ever going to be a cure. Cure Cancer Australia provides vital start up funding for innovative, young researchers. We needed to inspire people to support this altruistic cause – and demonstrate that the youth of today truly are vital in the ongoing quest for the cure. We developed a TV and print campaign that touched on the perceived vices of young people, demonstrating that when it comes to finding a cure for cancer these qualities are not only virtuous, but are exactly what the search for the cure needs. Powerful words delivered by iconic Australian actor Bruce Spence, and a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack by Decoder Ring, bring this film to life in a way that both resonates and inspires the audience to donate to a cause that is nothing short of heroic.
