After graduating from Florida State University's College of Motion Picture Arts, young director John Wikstrom decided to create a spec spot and the resulting film is currently taking the internet by storm.
The ad is based on a YouTube comment the director came across under the video Can Video Games Be a Spiritual Experience?
The spot tells the story of a young man who finds a digital echo of his late father after digging out his old Xbox with game Rallisport Challenge in the form of a ‘ghost’ car with a high score.
Read the comment the piece was inspired by below.
