“Precious Biscuits” uses the loose, altered threads of fairy tales to imbue Bakers Biscuits with wispy wonder.
It begins with pretty schoolchildren walking through a forest. Behind them, biscuits leap out of a cobblestone pavement — vestiges of Hansel & Gretel — bringing the environment to animated life.
Revisit naughty piglets, blind mice with canes, an egg that only almost dies, a social advocate made of gingerbread, and a round Red Queen with a teeny china mouth. You remember them, don’t you? At the end, Bakers draws a subtle comparison between itself and other confectioners of myth.
Produced by the divine hands of Shy the Sun & Blackginger for Ogilvy/Johannesburg and client Bakers.
