Created with independent agency Zurda, this tongue-in-cheek spot for condom brand Tulipán playfully riffs on an Argentinian colloquialism to deliver an important message about pleasure. 

Directed by Carmen Rivoira through Mama Hungara, the spot opens with a frenzied news report from a public park where people are disrupted by the sudden arrival of an alien spacecraft. But this isn’t your typical invasion – these UFOs look suspiciously like sex toys. 

Onlookers approach with awe, and upon touching the pulsating objects, exclaim that they’ve ‘seen God’s face’ – hilarious nod to the local saying, ¿Hace cuánto no le ves la cara a Dios? (“When was the last time you saw God’s face?”). 

Blending combining humour, irony and cultural nuance, the campaign playfully addresses a concerning contradiction: in an age of hypersexualisation and unlimited pornography, genuine sexual desire seems to be on the decline.
