This emotional and wildly successful short film, ‘Ben’s Glasses,’ was produced for Pearle Vision by BBDO and directed by Serial Picture’s Bruce St. Clair.
The subject matter of the spot explores the blurry world of the film's title character, Ben, as he learns to cope with the loss of his late grandfather—developing an immediate fondness for his newly inherited spectacles. However, through those old lenses, Ben finds it difficult to adjust to a life out of focus.
