Set to Édith Piaf’s enchanting song, L’hymne à l’amour, this spot for Lacoste features a dramatic fight between a couple, which sees their world, quite literally, torn apart. The film is unnarrated, instead using music and visuals to punctuate the action.

The ad, directed by Megaforce, with VFX playing an essential role, emphasises the couple’s emotions and heightened tensions. Their home, a symbol of their love, literally falls apart and crumbles around them as the heated argument escalates. At the end of the spot, the duo reconcile as their building crashes down around them, before the tagline Life is a Beautiful Sport appears on screen.
