About This Film
Film Overview
The 35th international Advertising Film Festival for Cinema and Television took place in Cannes, France, June 20-25, 1988. Following the awards ceremonies, winners in all categories were collected for this consistently entertaining and thought-provoking program, An eclectic mix of more than 100 commercials from 44 countries around the world, this compilation is a celebration of outstanding achievement in the advertising industry. Selected from a staggering 3,462 entries by a jury of 19 of the world's leading advertising executives, the Festival winners represent a broad range of styles, from wildly funny (ads for soap powders, lotteries, cars and toilets) to disturbingly provocative (public service announcements about AIDS and battered women).
