Created by Rosa Paris for SNCF Voyageurs, France's passenger train network, the spot depicts the travails of a couple of would-be wanderers who find themselves stymied by bust bikes.
Set to the classic anthem to motorbiking that is Steppenwolf’s Born to Be Wild, the spot was directed by Realite, through Big Productions, and sets the bikers’ stationary frustrations against the larks enjoyed by a group of youngsters zipping around the place on high-speed trains.
The brand aims to establish trains as a new symbol of a freedom that's aligned with the times – it represents a collective freedom, accessible to everyone, and respectful of the planet.
