Award-winning director Good People Films director Ali Ali has brought his signature humor to a new UAE campaign for FLOWARD, an Egyptian flower delivery and gift company, with a series of ads that reimagine iconic villains as soft-hearted individuals.
In the latest spot, a menacing Mobster unexpectedly calls off a hit when his intended target surprises him with a bouquet of flowers. Watch below:
Other commercials in the campaign feature an Angry Queen and determined Cowboys also melting at the sight of beautiful bouquets. Each spot cleverly parodies classic movie genres, including gangster noir, medieval drama, and western.
