In a landscape that owes much of its existence to the acquisition of endless things, this ad, titled Stuff, created for the travel brand by Anomaly and directed by Lance Acord, through Park Pictures, strikes a bold note.
Does the buying of increasingly thinner TVs, smarter smartphones, lighter light beers and even crunchier chips actually bring long-term happiness?
McGregor, an actor known for his fondness for global wanderings, suggests not as he strides purposely through various set in which ads for said objects are being produced.
Eventually he breaks out into a golden beach, landing with the wisdom that we’re more likely to regret gorgeous places we’ve missed visiting rather than stuff we’ve not bought.
