Turkey of the week: Huawei "#GirlPowered" by i-D Creative

Brittaney Kiefer cringed all the way through Huawei's film about tech-savvy fashionistas.

Huawei claims to be championing women who challenge stereotypes. So why are there so many clichés in this film – from the entrepreneur dressed in a power suit to sentences about smartphones "enabling me to work on the go"? The cheesy soundtrack and poorly written script don’t help either. Surely a tech brand could have come up with a more innovative way to celebrate women who are breaking barriers?
