Brazil Gets A Little Too Excited About A Very Berlin Wall-Like FIFA-Themed Bank Promotion

So Brazil is hosting the 2014 FIFA World Cup and Itau Bank, with help from Agencia Africa, put together this epic (seems to be the word of the day today) video, entitled The Great Transformation, that shows the entire country of Brazil becoming encased inside a giant stadium.

Brazilians gleefully welcome the encasement. We’re not sure we’d like a giant wall around our country. Hopefully the walls aren’t patrolled like they are the walls surrounding Raccoon City.

Yea, we know this is a metaphor. And yes, the film is beautifully shot.
