The million unseen enemies of the allergy sufferer are at the heart of the new spot for Benadryl titled War. With the intensity of gaming footage and the beauty of a naturalists diary, this Steve Cope directed spot for JWT London reaches well beyond the expected commercial for the summer sniffles category as seemingly innocent pollen, flowers and bees are transformed into agents of attack. Tim Hardy, who has worked with Cope on numerous and award-winning projects (including BBC2 Elvis and Guinness Alive Inside), was tapped to edit this effects-intensive, microscopic look into what lurks at every turn on those gorgeous & balmy days ahead.
