Siminn - Siminn Netvari - (2009) :30 (Iceland)


Iceland-based agency Ennemm, together with the Crossroads' directors Samuel and Gunnar, showcase the harsh depiction of unrestricted children in an adult world.....

To illustrate the effectiveness of Siminn's free website filtering service, Siminn Netvari portrays impressionable young children in various scenes: a chaotic bar, a strip club, gambling and even entering a dangerous stranger's house. With scenes set to an eerily somber Icelandic song and bearing a likeness to government smoking and drug PSAs, this unreservedly truthful ad helps to command attention in order to minimize the dangers of children surfing the web unrestricted.

Fantastic Ad. Get's you thinking. Lovely melody to hear also. But I have only one computer in my house and at any time I can look over my childrens shoulder to see where they are on the internet, that along with parental controls by my ISP and finally, my kids are legally and almost legally adults. I feel they have been amply protected if nothing than by good and present parenting.
