I think this was a very effective advert, especially for those people in the hapy little land of denial. The fun, relaxed game of a few, bright young girls and the sudden destruction of the peaceful atmosphere really got across the point of the impact a single landmine could have. It also showed how sudden and unexpected it was, from going home with a smile on your face to losing your hopes, dreams, and innocence. For those who have kids, this advert would have really changed their outlook on land-mines.
However, there might be some problems because little kids should know about the danger to children their age, but they are also too young to be seeing something so...gritty. I don't think this advert is pg-13.

Your acumen for literature has just dropped and of course your reputation as well. Nevertheless very nice blog, I absolutely concur with the section in which you said " from going home with a smile on your face...losing everything.." very nice way of putting it.
Yeah it was a great contrast of peace and war and how our peaceful society can be blown up at any stage. I also wondered about that - how much do we expose our children to in the name of education? An interesting topic to explore.
