Ooredoo launches short film

Ooredoo has launched a special commercial for Ramadan, which celebrates the spirit of togetherness and connection shared during the holy month.
The short film marks the first time that Ooredoo’s operations have come together to create an original advert, and the collaboration includes Ooredoo Group, Qatar,
Kuwait and Oman.
Featuring inspirational people from all three nations, its theme is the connection that everybody feels – both with each other and with their religion.
Waleed Mohamed Ebrahim al-Sayed, deputy chief executive officer, Ooredoo Group, said making the film has been a great experience for the whole team at Ooredoo.
“We have worked together with our colleagues in other markets to select the talent, develop the themes and shoot the advert together.”
Ooredoo’s short film features people from all works of life, including musical talent Michel Fadel, lyrist Ali al-Khawar, and singers Angham, Rashed al-Majed and Lotfi Bouchnak.
Other notable cast members include Rajaa Mohamed, an actress who came out of retirement to star in the film, make-up artist Sondos Alqattan, Oman football team captain Ali Alhabsi and Qatari poet Nasser Abhaq.
Ooredoo has launched the #CloserConnections campaign across its footprint in the GCC
region.
Ooredoo Oman will begin its sixth annual Goodwill Journey this week, with volunteers travelling more than 1,400km to bring joy to people and communities in five Wilayats.  
In Kuwait, Ooredoo will donate daily Iftar meals for workers, as well as hold a number of visits to care centres and hospitals across the country to distribute gifts.
In Qatar, Ooredoo is engaging with the community with a busy calendar of activities such as hospital visits, Iftar with the elderly, and donations towards several charities.
Ooredoo Qatar’s popular Alrabaa, a group of seven mascots who embody the traditions of the country, will also be making appearances at several events.
