Picasso Pictures director Frankie Swan animates the complex hidden feelings of a young girl in this spot for Dove and Cartoon Network “helping young girls understand that being themselves feels better than trying to fit in.”

The film is one of six in a series developed by Ogilvy UK and Rebecca Sugar, the creator of Cartoon Network’s Steven Universe, around themes of body positivity and self-confidence.

“Being more confident and building self-esteem takes time, but an inclusive media landscape for young people provides positive inspiration.”
