Amazon Christmas TV Advert – The Show must go on!

Share The Knowledge

A new Amazon Christmas TV ad campaign has been launched which follows a young, talented ballet dancer as she prepares for the role of a lifetime. This being 2020, things don’t go to plan, but with the support of friends and family, and her own tenacity and optimism, she delivers a spectacular performance for her awestruck neighbours.

“Our TV ad is inspired by, and pays tribute to, the unbeatable human spirit and the power of community that we have witnessed so often this year.”
– Simon Morris, VP Global Creative, Amazon

Today, a 60 second version of the advert is being shown and The full 120 second advert will air on 3rd November, during the first ad break of The Great British Bake Off on Channel 4. You can watch the full version of the advert below.

The TV advert, created by Lucky Generals for Amazon, features French ballet dancer, Taïs Vinolo, in the starring role. We follow her powerful story as her dreams of dancing a lead role are jeopardised due to the COVID-19 crisis. As her ballet school closes, she continues to train regardless, in and around her neighbourhood. However, later in the year, her hopes are dashed, as the end of year performance is cancelled. Devastated, she loses hope. However, her sister and the community around her secretly pull together to give her a stage and an audience after all, in an emotional finale.

“When I was growing up in the French countryside, there were no young black girls studying ballet with hair like mine, or even on TV, meaning I had no one to identify myself with. Being on this shoot helped so much with this, enabling me to own who I really am, who I want to be and what I represent. I am so proud to have been part of this project since the message of it means a lot to me and even more so in this very difficult time that the world is going through.”
– Taïs Vinolo, ballerina, Amazon Christmas 2020 advert

To coincide with the launch of the ad, customers can now browse and purchase gifts from The Amazon Christmas Shop.
