Wego: Don’t Let Your Winter Break Become a Nightmare | Wedo |M&C Saatchi, Dubai

This darkly comic film shows how to look at barriers as creative opportunities, pivoting, taking a risk and engaging new audiences with a ‘nightmarish’ campaign. It also raises brand awareness by offering different payment options, making travel ‘safer’ and more accessible.
