Summer in the City

For m-way, we captured summer in the city: we follow a mime riding her e-bike through central Zurich. While others swelter in their cars, she shows just how effortless urban mobility can be. With limited resources, a small environmental footprint and close collaboration with the client, we created light-footed, imaginative storytelling that goes straight to the heart.
