WhatsApp – New Year’s Film 2021
The One
The coming about
The task was to create a New Year’s film that embodied WhatsApp’s purpose – connecting people.
The result: a three-minute film that captures an entire love story within the ten-second countdown to midnight. Through emotional performances and intimate cinematography, it turned a simple countdown into a timeless story of love, loss, and reunion.
