Cannes 2018 might have taken place under the shadow of Publicis Groupe's decision to pause participation in award shows, but the week came to an end with the celebration of truly creative work. And one of Friday night's Film Grand Prix went to a campaign from Saatchi & Saatchi New York: the Super Bowl phenomenon 'It's a Tide Ad'. It was also a great night for Host/Havas, who won two Grands Prix for the Palau Pledge.

Friday night's awards recognised the Titanium Lions, Film Lions, Glass: The Lion for Change, Sustainable Development Goals Lions and Creative Effectiveness. Agency of the Year went to adam&eveDDB, Network of the Year went to BBDO, Independent Agency of the Year was given to Jung von Matt, Hamburg, and the Palme d’Or for most awarded production company of the year was presented to MJZ.

In the Creative Effectiveness Lions, 169 entries were received and 18 Lions awarded: 2 Gold, 6 Silver and 9 Bronze. The Grand Prix went to: ‘Savlon Healthy Hands Chalk Sticks’, by Ogilvy Mumbai, India, for ITC, described by the jury as an authentic cause collaboration that drove results.

Damon Jones, Vice President, Global Communications, P&G, said, “This honour reinforces the power and the responsibility of brands to be the courageous change we want and need in the world. We’re humbled that ‘The Talk’ sparked dialogue, opened hearts and changed minds.”

In Glass: The Lion for Change, 218 entries were received and 11 Lions awarded: 2 Gold, 3 Silver and 5 Bronze. The Grand Prix winner: ‘Bloodnormal’, by AMVBBDO, London, United Kingdom, for Essity, is a powerful work that challenges perceptions of female menstruation.

“It won our hearts, not because of the good it did but because of the good it was. If our job is capturing attention and transferring it from mind to heart, ‘Palau Pledge’ was constructed as an incredibly effective vehicle. Truly inspiring work that will have a lasting legacy,” said Titanium Lions Jury president: Colleen DeCourcy, Chief Creative Officer, Wieden+Kennedy.
