Esso Reindeer Princess
Posted in: AnimationExxonMobil Europe is connecting into the Christmas season with “Esso Reindeer Princess”, an online film set in Norway. The commercial explores the story of Anne, a young woman who has found her place in the Sámi tradition of reindeer racing. Growing up in her local community she felt as though she didn’t fit. However she has gained acceptance after becoming the world’s number-one reindeer racer. Running online and on social media across European markets, the campaign aims to show the difference an Esso station can make in remote communities. Amid the snowscape, we see footage of an Esso service station providing a beacon of light and connection to the outside world for the people who live in this remote place. “The Reindeers saved me”.
Paul Cohen, Global Executive Creative Director on ExxonMobil, adam&eveDDB said: “This is a compelling and human story that shows the difference an Esso station can make to a remote community. Esso are proud to keep the Reindeer Princess racing and this seemed like the perfect time of year to bring this story to a wider audience.”
