City planners may take umbrage, but Nice Shirt’s Gerald McMorrow oversees some tricksy roadworks in this Nissan commercial. We see highways converge and conjoin at will - enough to distract one driver at a busy junction. Easily done when the world turns ‘Inception’ on you. Luckily, the marque’s Altima and Rogue models are on red alert.

The technically-accomplished shoot - realised by McMorrow and MPC - raises pertinent questions about driverless cars. In promoting their safety features, Nissan depict near-misses in a rather breezy fashion. The future may be autonomous, but drivers in the present best keep their wits about them.

This compelling Under Armour commercial stars Misty Copeland - the first African-American female principal dancer with the American Ballet Theatre. It’s a far cry from the Metropolitan Opera House, but this empty arena proves the ideal stage.

Agile’s Georgia Hudson is well-versed in dancerly shoots. Here, Hudson and DP Zoë White orbit Copeland’s graceful performance - all measured flexes and controlled bursts. As she spins and pirouettes, the camera follows suit.

Her backing track is provided by poet Saul Williams. Copeland becomes an “astronaut of corporal grace” - somehow ascending with both feet on the ground. Despite Copeland’s elite status, Williams extols equality: “To match my strength is to feel your own”.

One of six films commissioned by the sportswear brand, this is quieter than anything Under Armour have released before. However, this celebration of Copeland’s athletic art speaks volumes.

One wouldn’t immediately associate Opel with the new world order, but the marque clearly have a Mr Robot fan on staff. This cinematic commercial wears its tech-noir influences on its sleeve.

The main protagonist is a computer hacker determined to crash The System. While her targets squirm, she prepares to strike. We almost expected to see Elliot Alderson’s victory pose.

Hunky-Dory’s Matthäus Bussmann flits between this corporate takedown and more grounded pursuits e.g. a chef arranging a birthday surprise. Meanwhile, Jürgen Klopp vents his spleen in the dressing room. Well, that’s the Liverpool defence for you.

Slick and energetic, it feels like a trailer for a film we’ll never see. While we’re sure the marque isn’t endorsing corporate espionage, it does suggest we consider a forward-thinking car.
