Brief Explanation

This 3rd instalment turns a classic folk story on its head to promote Pepsi Nex Zero. "Momotaro", aka The Peach Boy, is about a young man born from a peach who goes on to befriend a dog, monkey and pheasants, who later band together to battle a big bad red demon. There is a avante-grande, music video style twist to the story, depicting the characters in stylish costumes as they take on on the intimidating red beast (ONI). The modernised update serves as a perfect metaphor for the battle brand Pepsi faces against its biggest (red) rival. This installment turns a classic folk story on its head to promote Pepsi Nex Zero.
