Task
In times of Brexit and the growing nationalists movement, the European Union has a hard stand. Its citizens have forgotten the advantage a membership in the union has for them. In the light of the upcoming elections on 26th of May, our client wanted to dedicate their May magazine edition to the EU. Our task was to create an ad that uplifts the image of the EU.

Implementation
As the results of the election would mostly affect the younger generation of EU citizens, we decided to compose a manifesto that pictured a dystopian future A future without the European Union, a Europe with closed national borders hindering the free movement of people and goods. Our message: Vote for a unified Europe!

Hey, the EU is being terminated!
Happy now?
Looking forward to the regression?
Forget spontaneous getaways,
your visa hasn't been approved.
But the currency exchange rate is bad anyway,
better spend your holiday in Meck-Pomm,
you'll find like-minded people there.
And your new sneakers from Milano?
They're stuck at customs,
you'll never be able to afford the juicy duty.
Invest in toilet paper instead,
because the price for paper
will soon make wiping your a** expensive.
Yeah, go ahead and cry,
that's that's what you get.
Your one true love 
will forever stay virtual reality,
Your Don Juan cannot enter the country.
Not even food turns you on anymore,
it's just not foodporn-worthy:
Pizza without tomatoes, coz of the ban of imports from Spain,
and the Mozerella has been replaced by Leberkäs.
Not even a Insta-filter can save you
from the ugly truth.
Can you deal with it?
Oh, wait. Just fake news. LOL
