Geberit Mastering Water: When the Bathroom Becomes a Parallel World

Seed has produced a new opening film for Geberit, titled «Geberit Mastering Water,» which is being used in about 20 countries outside of Europe. Geberit regularly hosts regional customer events in numerous growth markets outside Europe—and the company uses this film to kick off its current events.

The film follows a young woman on her way home: the rain, a shivering dog, and the spray from a passing car are taking a heavy toll on her. Soaked to the bone, she reaches her apartment. But in the bathroom, the tables turn—here, she’s the one who controls how the water flows.

From Briefing Development to Implementation

In collaboration with Geberit, Seed developed both the film and the key visual—from the briefing phase through the creative process to the final production. Ari Zehnder directed the film and was also responsible for the script and editing. Andreas Szentkuti was responsible for the concept, and Anton Fresco served as director of photography.

The production was handled by Tango Production (production services), under the direction of Bastian Hertel and producer Felix Courvoisier.
