Summary

A commercial promoting aspirin pills.

Synopsis

The voice-over informs about the forty years of the traditional use of aspirin pills in treating colds, rheumatism, pain, flue and fever. Each pill bears a sign of authenticity – the Bayer Cross. We learn that the crucial aspect in healing is not the price but the quality, and we must therefore pay attention to the authenticity of the aspirin pills available in pharmacies.
