Brief Explanation

VAPE KO2 is an insect repellant that wipes out cockroaches without bad odor. The TVC takes place in a small village where all the neighbors are gathered for a special occasion (a common characteristic of the Lebanese culture): the competition for “Longest Breath”. The winner is a young man who has developed his competency through holding his breath to avoid the horrific odor of pesticides as a kid, with VAPE KO2 presented as the solution to break the habit of avoiding bad pesticide odors.
