For many, banking is perceived as a very serious and regulated domain that easily dismisses emotional concepts such as humor as a sign of carelessness and irresponsibility.

As Qatar's newest Islamic banking group, Barwa Bank decided to change this perception by running a major campaign in Doha - a campaign designed to make you think again and smile.
