The challenge

The ministry wanted to connect the founders of the Saudi state with the country's development and safety today, while putting its heritage and tourism landmarks in front of audiences.

The idea

The poetic, cinematic film links the founders of the state and its kings across different eras through a message passed between them. The question of how the Kingdom has fared is answered by its landmarks, from Diriyah and Masmak Palace to today's city skylines, charting the country's journey of development and safety. The ministry posted it on X on 20 February 2024.
