H&M has taken a different approach to the slew of Christmas campaigns released this time of year, with a lovely short film directed by Wes Anderson and starring Adrien Brody.

The nearly four-minute video is set on a train during the holidays. Due to bad weather, the trip is delayed so Brody, who plays the conductor, prepares a festive surprise for the travellers.

The film, named Come Together, is full of Anderson’s beloved visual quirks, including great attention to detail and precise uniforms, and of course features Brody, who has previously starred on a train in The Darjeeling Limited, as well as in Anderson’s other acclaimed films The Grand Budapest Hotel and Fantastic Mr. Fox.

The video has nearly half a million hits on YouTube and trended on Twitter last night when it was released.

All the actors are wearing H&M's holiday line of clothes.
