The three-season drama series is about the journey of a female refugee through betrayal and abuse after fleeing from war and corruption.
Jordan-based production house Arab Telemedia Group has completed the post-production of social series titled September’s Gold.
The series is the leading production among a collection of upcoming creative works which have been in development for the past two years and to be released in 2021-2022.
The series features Marah Jabr, Shoukran Mortaja, Nour Saab, Ammar Shalak, Elie Chalouhy, Akef Najem, Sari Al Ass’ad, Ghada Abbasi, Ali Elayyan, Mustafa Abu Hanoud, Ameera Sameer, and Luna Bishara, in addition to many young talents.
As soon as all the scenes were filmed the crew proceeded to work on the post-production including sound mixing, colouring and music, and visual effects. The group completed all the needed work making the episodes and movies ready for TV and Platforms.
September’s Gold talks about the stories happening behind the shadow of marginalised and vulnerable individuals who are seeking refuge during the Covid-19 crisis.
The story revolves around individuals suffering exploitation and abuse by opportunity-seeking predators, who deprive a group of girls from a dignified life through exploitation & manipulation.
Muhammad Eraikat, ATG’s head writer, developed the script under the supervision of producer Talal Al-Awamleh. The series narrates a conflict between good and evil on the one hand, and survivalism in the face of a deadly pandemic on the other.
In addition, the script and series offer an unconventional viewpoint of misrepresented refugees who disparage victimisation and rise up against existentialism embodied in a war between beauty, love, and the difficulties in between.
The series, which will run for three seasons – each season comprised of 10 episodes – sheds light on the lives of five women from Syrian, Palestinian, Lebanese, and Iraqi nationalities, and explores the intricate psychological, political, social and spiritual characteristics defining human behaviours played by Amira Samir, Marah Jabr, Shukran Mortaja, Luna Bechara and Riham Aziz.
Throughout each episode, Amman, the capital of Jordan, served as the main stage, mainly because it has a unique history and preserves its present, as well as becoming a space of solidarity, tolerance, and diversity.
As the filming locations for September’s Gold diversified over the past months, many touristic archaeological and historical sites in Amman were used to host scenes featuring Jordanian and Arab artists, as well as filming locations that extended outside Amman to meet the script of the story in which the main characters are of different Arab nationalities.
