    1 of 10
    Maa Waqf El Tanfeez
    'Maa’ Waqf Al Tanfeez' (Zee Alwan): This Syrian social drama follows the residents of Haret Al-Attarin who have returned home years after they were forced to flee due to the war. The story addresses the lives of several individuals from different social classes and how they attempt to pick up the pieces of their past.

    Thil
    'Thil' (Zee Alwan): Abdel Mounaem Amayri, Jamal Sulaiman and Yousef Al Khal star in this pan-Arab drama that delves into the lives of people who work in the shadows but are capable of controlling all our moves. The darkness of the shadow often reflects black hearts and souls. That describes Mr. Jalal perfectly, an attractive 40-year-old lawyer who defends the law, but does not uphold justice.

    Haya Al Rouh

The series, directed by Jassem Al Muhanna, stars Khaled Amin, Saad Faraj, Bouthaina Al Raisi, and Faysal Al Omairi. Image Credit: Supplied

    Hend Sabry Finding Ola-1642932962630
    'Finding Ola' (Netflix): With Netflix actively looking into producing high quality Arabic content for the platform, ‘Finding Ola’ is another winner on the cards for the streamer with Hend Sabry leading the charge in this heartwarming tale of taking chances. The trailer to Sabry’s series, which dropped earlier this year, sees the Cairo-based Tunisian film and TV star play Ola Abdel-Sabour, a middle-aged Arab woman who seems to have it all — the perfect husband, three children and a support system in her mother. But life serves her lemons when her husband Hisham (Hany Adel) blindsides her with a divorce. Image Credit: Sima Diab
