“GREATNESS LIES AHEAD” + “HOME” | BRAND FILMS
WINNER | SILVER TELLY AWARD
What happens when you leave behind all you’ve ever known? Does your past define you? Or was it all preparation for this new path? Could your greatest days lie ahead of you?
Rhone commissioned a series of films that explored this idea with recently retired NFL wide receiver Eric Decker. We took a look at his moment of transition from full time football player to full time husband and father, and how his past has shaped him for his future.
