A very powerful anti rape message from 2003

The ad is a double page with the pages partially stuck together. if you pull them apart it reveals the line “if you have to use force, it’s rape”.
The pro bono ad was done by Lowe Bull Calvert Pace in 2003 for South Africa for POWA (People Opposing Women Abuse) and recieved a Cannes Lion Press Silver award

I was born in Liverpool and am a lifelong Liverpool supporter. Thirty years ago I spent the day travelling from Amsterdam to Liverpool via Belgium and then watched the Huysel tragedy unfold on my Nan's TV. 
My love for the 'beautiful game' has never been the same since

ROUND TWO: Ramzan Kadyrov VS 'The Family'

Soon on the screens of your television sets and movie theaters you will see a film 'WHO DOES NOT UNDERSTAND WILL GET IT.'This is an extremely topical picture, in which after extended negotiations, I agreed to play the role of the main hero. Some scenes have already been filmed. The director is the author of famous Hollywood films. Also appearing in the film are world-famous first-class stars. The authors are confident that the film will have enormous success.
