DIVE IN

wagamama

Inspired by the nations gravitational pull to lakes, ponds, lidos and beaches, ‘Dive In’ metaphorically mirrors the experience of quenching your soul through swimming, with the rejuvenating properties of the UK’s favourite ramen. We enlisted Green Tea Peng to voice a modern cover of Nina Simone’s Feeling Good, a track that captured the sentiment we wanted to land with the film.
