Maaden

Country / Region

Saudi Arabia

This National Day film is a cinematic exploration of the profound connection between "Maaden", the mineral, and "Maaden", the essence of Saudi Arabia.
This film explores the double meaning of the tagline “المعدن السعودي“ (Which translates to the "Saudi mettle") in a narrative following various characters that represent the unparalleled mettle of Saudi citizens.
Their commemorative Saudi National Day film was crafted to honor the kingdom by drawing a powerful parallel between the richness of Saudi Arabia’s mineral resources and the enduring spirit of its people. Both a literal and metaphorical journey, the narrative is elevated by words based on the wordplay throughout. At its core, the film aims to celebrate Saudi heritage, inspire the next generation, and reflect the company’s values of care, integrity, and teamwork.
