Possibly the Best Climate Change Awareness Video Ever

cannes-lions-douchebag.jpg

Cannes Young Lions competition entries for client Oxfam Great Britain have been mixed -- and the stuff we've seen has been wince-worthy, running the "Horrors!" gamut from complete mundanity to gratuitous panty-dancing violence.

That all changes with "Douchebag Pie," arguably the greatest climate change awareness ad for Generation: YouTube ever created.

And if it singlehandedly brings the word "douchebag" to the French lexicon, then all the better.

Bloody asinine work, man. But when it's 6 in the morning and everything gives you rage, it hits the spot right. Like fried mozzarella sticks.

it may seem akward, but some french people are actually willing to go Cannes for free... did you check the cow fart video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCe4UBCdgC4&feature=player_embedded

The best french stuff for the moment in my opinion !

By the way, filmapprentice's spot is awesome... There's a lot of crap on that competition, but a lot of great ideas hidden !
