It’s really not that difficult to make me cry over a commercial, but this one did the job perfectly.

The cultural differences drew me in. I wondered if it was going to be a commercial for a children’s program or a household cleaner or some other female-targeted product or service. I noted the lack of fathers. Time passes and I think it might be advertising a university or scholarship program. I remember Mother’s Day is coming. I note the Olympic tie-in.

Then, ah, resolution.

Resolution and tears.
