2017 Winners & Shortlists

Brief Explanation

We lead pretty demanding and stressful lives. But whatever the day may throw at you, a positive attitude can be all you need to turn a bad situation on its head. The perfect metaphor? Just as Coffee-Mate turns bitter coffee smooth and creamy, we invite our audience to do the same with bitter situations. #BeSmooth. Our film follows the typical day of a newly married Lebanese man living with his beautifully blushing new bride. However, it’s not long before our protagonist runs into the typical teething problems of any marriage; and the film’s contrast begins to show. But when life gets intense, he remembers to just #BeSmooth.
