Muawiyah is another historical series that sheds light on the trials and tribulations of Caliph Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan. The series celebrates his achievements in building the Islamic state in its political concept, to be the last of caliphs and the first of kings.
Other releases include the 30-episode, family-oriented comedy drama titled Family of Two Floors, which tells the tale of two families who will stop at nothing for wealth and success; the Bedouin fantasy series Al-Aidarous, which focuses on female heroines and Salt Statues, a contemporary fantasy series that sheds light on existentialism through a looking glass.
