"To create a masterpiece, sometimes you have to break a few rules.
This film is a chance to create something unseen for Godiva - a spot that’s not only cinematic and action-packed, but relatable by nature thanks to its character-driven humour. It needs to feel as elegant as a perfume ad, with the wry humour of Leighton at its core. And of course, it needs to be centred in the rich world that Godiva has created.
In other words, much like art, we’re creating something unexpected, Something new. Something rare." - Adrian Villagomez
