A short but intense and well executed Sci-Fi story, with some amazing CGI work. The Gift was created as part of the Phillips/DDB London/RSA collaborative effort to show off the video quality of some Phillips TVs. What is amazing about this piece is that DDB London wrote the five lines of dialog, and handed it to five different directors, who made five totally different films. The phillips.com/cinema web site doesn’t seem to be there any more, but it looks like they uploaded everything to their YouTube account.
