In 2009 I was approached by TELE 2 to direct two spots. TELE2 boards use the same 3 iconic characters (Sonny, Don and Tony) and employ more cinematic storytelling. I enjoyed bringing to life this project because of the “mafioso film” genre. Both films were shot in Kiev –one story took place in a strip club and the other in an old soviet style foundry. Luis (DOP) did a beautiful job lighting both stories despite the time restraints.

Above, the “babushka” character (Tonny’s grandmother) is put in the Gogo dancer’s cage and improvises her sexy dance moves.
