So this is one of the new NIKE films for their “Make the difference” campaign. Starring Franck Ribery of Bayern Munich. A good film. Have a look at the original version:
Problem is that the German version is horrible. The voice over destroys the whole atmosphere. The tonality is absolutely wrong. NIKE is not ironic. NIKE is epic.

You should say the same without actually copying every word. A poor job here, honestly. Could have been much better. Have a look yourself:
