Write a short summary of what happens in the film
We follow a DHL courier making a delivery to James Bond. As he is about to hand over the package through the window of the waiting Aston Martin, villains in black 4x4s force 007 to flee.
Moments later the courier receives an updated delivery address, returns to his van and heads off to the new destination.
From the POV of the calm, knowledgeable DHL driver, as he makes his efficient and timely way to the delivery point, we observe the chaos of the car chase unfolding all around him.
Naturally the courier arrives moments before Bond.
In a beautifully executed, precision piece of driving, Bond skids to a halt beside the DHL guy perfectly positioned so the courier’s outstretched arm, package in hand, enters the open passenger window. A perfect delivery.
“Excellent timing Mr. Bond”, the courier quips before the DB5 screeches away once again, villains in hot pursuit.
Cultural / Context information for the jury
DHL are the Official Logistics Partner for the latest Bond movie - No Time To Die. Delivering vital film equipment, props (and even a couple of actors), to film locations around the world. On a time critical movie schedule it’s essential that everything arrives on set, on time, ready for shooting. Any delays are costly.
DHL has 15 years experience working on all five Daniel Craig films. For the launch of No Time to Die, DHL wanted to highlight the timeliness and precision that makes for a long running and trusting partnership with EON Productions. The implicit message in this homage to the world of Bond; If DHL can deliver on a production of this magnitude, imagine how they could help your business.
