"Love Is Messy"
Broken Heart Love Affair
Kruger Products wanted to deepen the emotional connection with its paper product brands by expanding the “Unapologetically Human” masterbrand campaign. Recognizing the importance of brand love in the commoditized paper products category, the campaign from Broken Heart Love Affair delves into the messy, authentic moments of human life that resonate with consumers.

A two-minute online film, as well as 60- and 30-second TV spots, portray the full spectrum of love (from infatuation to reconciliation) between couples from various backgrounds and age groups. The spot shines a light on the everyday moments, the tears, the fears and the mess, all laddering up to a life well lived and loved.
