Turn Adidas "Background legends" into a full movie or series


Turn Adidas "Background legends" into a full movie or series
The Issue
**I personally enjoyed the "Background Legends" story and I don't think that cinematic experience should be limited to 5 minutes.**
"Background Legends" by Adidas is more than just an advertisement—it's a short film that speaks to the heart of sports enthusiasts and storytelling aficionados alike. In just five minutes, this captivating and beautifully shot piece managed to create strong emotional connections with its viewers, leaving them hungry for more. It intertwines sports, art, history, and human emotion in a way that is rarely seen outside blockbuster movies or award-winning series.
Yet, five minutes is too short to fully appreciate the complex narrative and rich characters it introduced. We firmly believe that expanding it into a full-length feature film or even a series could do justice to the story that "Background Legends" has just begun to tell. Not only would it provide a fuller, more satisfying narrative experience for its audience, but it would also allow Adidas to expand its presence in the realm of content production, showing the world that they are capable as storytellers as well.
Moreover, the sports industry provides a fertile ground for storytelling. There are stories of triumph and defeat, of perseverance and struggle, of friendship and rivalry. "Background Legends" barely scratches the surface and begs for deeper exploration into these themes. With the current cultural landscape obsessed with series that explore character development and complex stories, this is a timely opportunity for Adidas.
We call upon Adidas to seriously consider this proposal and provide more of this intriguing narrative to the audience. Championing this project could not only enrich the brand's image but also bring a unique perspective to the global entertainment industry.
Please sign this petition to support bringing "Background Legends" to life on a grander scale, and together, let's show Adidas there is a strong demand for quality storytelling in sports. Let's make "Background Legends" a legend of its own right in cinemas and households worldwide!
