In a recent commercial for Adidas, Budapest plays an important role with its metro underpasses, K-Bridge, and Alstom metro train – moreover, the production company and producer of the short film are both Hungarian.
Even though most of it takes place underground, in the short film for Adidas Originals we can recognize various locations from Budapest. The K-Bridge of Óbuda Island (best known as the gateway to the Sziget Festival), the Gellért Square stop of metro line 4, a new metro train and escalator, and numerous underpasses appear in the sportswear company’s dark, cool commercial. One of the commercial’s production companies is Hungary’s own Pioneer Films, while the executive producer is Melinda Szepesi.
