Our creative pieces for the International Fantastic Film Festival of Catalonia – Sitges have been recognized with two shortlist nominations from Cannes Lions 2024 in the Film Lions category.
Shortlist Nominations

- “Couple”: Film Lions for Travel, Leisure, Retail, Restaurants & Fast Food Chains.
Every year, the Sitges International Film Festival pays tribute to a film. At its 56th edition it selected ‘The Birds’, a classic Hitchcock film.
The campaign was developed through two audiovisual pieces: “Chess” and “Couple.” In both, the characters, absorbed by fear, divert their attention to the sky instead of concentrating on their activities-a game of chess and a couple’s discussion-subtly highlighting the presence of the birds only by their sound.
This creative approach not only celebrated Hitchcock’s legacy, but also boosted the festival, increasing ticket sales significantly and reinforcing its position as the world’s leading fantasy film festival. With 49,196 tickets sold, the campaign marked an increase of more than 10,000 tickets over the previous year, demonstrating its resonance and success in capturing public and media attention.
Congratulations to the entire team on this achievement. These shortlist nominations highlight our commitment to creative excellence and innovation in storytelling. Good luck, and let’s go for the award! We will be following the results closely.
