The German supermarket chain Edeka , the same one that did not make people cry their eyes out five years ago with an advertisement starring a grandfather who went to the extent of faking his own death to reunite his loved ones at Christmas , seems determined to return to the path of tears in their Christmas advertising. After releasing a supposedly humorous (and diverse) spot last month that some nevertheless called racist , Edeka returns to the advertising arena with another much more emotional and sentimental ad. The spot , which has the motto "Lasst uns froh und bunter sein" (Let's be happier and more colorful), stars Mr. Schmidt, a lonely and grumpy old man who lives alone in an apartment block and who seems to be extremely irritated by their neighbors (particularly the younger ones).
Schmidt is bothered by finding children running around in the hallways and also hates being confronted Phone Number List with the strange aromas emanating from the neighboring apartments (mostly inhabited by immigrants). If you do not see the embedded video correctly, click here The antithesis of Mr. Schmidt is Burak, a Muslim teenager who loves to cook with his family and meet with his friends. When the old man reacts angrily to the games of a group of children in the neighborhood yard, Burak intervenes to protect the little ones from Schmidt's bad fumes. Shortly after, a turn of events occurs.
Mr. Schmidt places a warning sign on the door of his home: he has been diagnosed with coronavirus . Good old Burak then cannot help but feel sorry for him and encourages his family to cook a delicious Christmas dinner for his hermit neighbor and leave it by his door. Needless to say, such an endearing gesture manages to move the usually reclusive Mr. Schmidt, who barely suppresses tears upon discovering the generous gift from Burak and his family. Signed by the German agency Jung von Matt for the new Christmas spot by Edeka , which will perhaps provoke less harshly critical reactions than the previous one .
