According to Brigadier General Mustafa
Al-Hayari, the director of military media in JAF, the film’s vision stemmed
from the overarching vision of the Jordanian Armed Forces leadership. This
vision aimed at harnessing all available communication mediums and leveraging
the profound impact of art to raise awareness about the perils of
drug addiction plaguing numerous societies in the region and globally, as reported
by Al-Mamlaka TV.
The film also seeks to unveil the stark
realities of drug traffickers, criminal syndicates, and smugglers who exploit
societal vulnerabilities to ensnare individuals and perpetrate various forms of
violence against humanity. As the year progresses, the film will continue its
journey, competing in other international and regional film festivals, with
results set to be announced in due course.
It is noteworthy that "The Load"
marks a milestone as it was entirely produced by the Military Media Directorate
for the first time, with the Military Media Center overseeing its conception,
including writing, directing, producing, filming, and editing, all undertaken
by the dedicated military media personnel involved in its creation.
