The Undelivered

A Ramadan film about a Palestinian man whose parcel to Gaza never arrives because the borders are shut, directed by Aramex's own Global Creative Director Shahir Sirry. It closed by asking viewers to post a message of peace on deliverpeace.global, drawing videos from 43 countries and a reported 14 million views across YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, X and LinkedIn.

The brief
Audiences across the region and beyond during Ramadan, when closed borders kept parcels from reaching Gaza.
The idea
Directed by Aramex's own creative head, a film follows a Palestinian man's parcel to Gaza that never arrives, then invites viewers to share a peace message at deliverpeace.global.
What to borrow
A logistics brand can speak on a crisis through the one thing it knows, a delivery that cannot be made.
