The first TV-commercial for 'Donorweek'. 2010.

Celebrities and non-celebrities share their answer to the question if they are an organdonor or not. We wanted to create a seamless connection between the between while they literally pass on the question. Phenomenal camera work by Martijn van Broekhuizen and a killer soundtrack by Jasper Boeke.
