Aside from the competition, the campaign tells the story of a typical Hong Kong family with a mom who has given up her dream to be a weightlifter to care for her family. In the end, she decides to revisit the sports arena and fight for the gold. Wellcome has launched initial teaser trailers on local television to drive traffic to the campaign’s website, which features the full-length movie, mini-games and interactive videos on each of the characters in the family.
Whether or not the mother can win a gold medal, the message is that everyone stands a chance to win one in the Wellcome awards. As the daughter in the family says, “it’s just the matter of trying.”
