De’Longhi

Perfetto

It’s not just peffect. It’s Perfetto.

The Challenge

De’Longhi had built its premium credentials on Italian heritage and machines that make perfect coffee. But to elevate the brand globally, it needed to turn that perception of quality into something more emotional, distinctive and meaningful.

The Crazy Ambition

To turn the pursuit of perfect coffee into the art of living a perfetto moment.

The Idea

Introducing The Perfetto Instructions for Use: a cinematic reinterpretation of a De’Longhi coffee machine manual, where every precise instruction becomes part of a richer ritual. Directed by Taika Waititi and starring Brad Pitt in an unexpected comedic role, the film transformed product demonstration into elegant entertainment — proving that perfect coffee only becomes truly perfetto with a little more humanity, humour and Italian spirit.
