                  4. To think about it- Movistar commercial.

The Telefonica mobile phone provider, is running “Love Story”, a commercial promoting safety for young people meeting each other online. Shot in Madrid, Spain, the Love Story commercial shows two young teenagers connecting with each other using their mobile phones, catching up on their days, sending photos, and arranging to meet for the first time. Alejandro Padilla will wear a black jacket. Mia Aguirre will wear pink. When they meet at the park, however, they discover that not all is as it seems. The Movistar Love Story soundtrack, “You’re somebody else” by Flora Cash, reveals the looming reality. The commercial is part of the #ConcienciaMovistar awareness raising campaign, focused in this case on the existence of fake social media profiles.
