Coca Cola on the Border

Coca Cola returns to the border patrol for a new television commercial, aired during the 2011 Super Bowl. Working in dry and remote places is a thirsty business, but patriotism does not always allow for the sharing of happiness. Border tells the story of two soldiers from rival nations who are able to put aside their differences and, for the briefest of moments, see each other as individuals as they share an ice-cold bottle of Coke.
