"The Impossible Trailer" This commercial shows some well-to-do families on vacation at a luxury resort. One family is playing, swimming, or reading beside the pool when wind starts to blow and things start to shake. From a wide shot, we see palm trees start to fall over as if some giant monster is coming toward them. All of a sudden, water comes barreling over the resort buildings as a tidal wave moves through. People, cars, and buildings are swept away. Families are separated during the tsunami, and there is no easy way to find anyone, or even know if they are still alive. This film depicts the struggle to find people, help people, and survive this real-world incident in Southeast Asia.
Boys, come and see this. Isn't it great? Dad, can we swim in that? Yeah, we can go swimming. The most scary bit for me... When the water hit? When I came up, and I was all on my own. And then I saw the two of you, and I didn't feel so scared anymore. Mommy and ??? are on their own right now. I'm going to keep looking for them. I'm scared. I'm scared too. Thank you so much Lucas, go and help people. You're good at it. You're looking for your family? I'll look in all the hospitals. I'll look in all the shelters. I will find them - I promise you that. (Lyrics) One love, one life When it's one need in the night One life with each other Sisters, brothers One life, but we're not the same We get to carry each other Carry each other
