Monte de Piedad
2019
Overview
Some stories speak of sacrifice, of what is given and what eventually comes back. Created in Mexico for Anónimo, this piece for Monte de Piedad follows the journey of a man who, despite life’s challenges, never stops working for his daughter’s future. Over the years, his dedication, hard work, and every small act of care build a path that she, in time, learns to walk on her own. As life moves forward, so does the certainty that his effort was never in vain.
Challenges & Approach
The challenge was to create a story that felt authentic and relatable, without exaggeration or artifice. The cinematography follows the passage of time with a carefully crafted aesthetic, where lighting, framing, and narrative rhythm reflect life’s challenges and the evolution of its protagonists. The camera closely follows moments of dedication and perseverance, highlighting how each act of commitment leaves a lasting mark.
The Result
The commercial sensitively conveys the values of Monte de Piedad, where true commitment is not just about what is given but also about what comes back. The story reflects that every sacrifice and every effort has a purpose, reminding us that what truly matters always finds its way back.
