On the last day of Cannes, the most important prize in World Advertising, three Brazilian campaigns were awarded with bronze lions.
Awards went to the commercials “New Fairies”, by Wieden Kennedy SP Agency for Nike, “Iconic Kisses”, by Gut São Paulo Agency for Mercado Livre, in the Film category.
In the Glass category, which awards works that promote gender equality, one of the bronze awards went to “Uniform That Never Been Before,” from Centauro’s agency TracyLocke.
In the campaign, Centauro honors Ida dos Santos, the only woman in the Brazilian delegation to the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. Aida, who finished fourth in the high jump at those Olympicsshe competed without a coach and without a uniform – at the games, she wore a uniform borrowed from football from Botafogo.
