    "Brazil's Agencia Click created an interactive movie for Fiat that was shown in the country's theaters. The six-minute-long interactive movie is in the "choose you own adventure" style and generates 16 different endings. The interactive part comes when the audience is invited to answer on-screen questions by texting answers to a number. The final version of the movie is compiled from the clips that gather the most votes"- External quote

The work, created by The Monkeys—part of Accenture Song—is recognized for re-establishing the tenets of what defines a country, especially when it has no land.

  • Cannes Lions Direct Grand Prix - Coinbase

    Cannes Lions Festival

    Created by Accenture Song, the ultra-minimalist QR code campaign ‘Less Talk, More Bitcoin’ was launched at the Super Bowl in January 2022 and almost instantly became a cultural lightning rod, tapping into consumer behavior and interest engagingly and playfully. Following the spot, the app quickly reached #2 in the Apple App Store and ‘crashed’ the site due to its massive popularity.
