Naela Al Atrash

A sweeping historical epic tracing the life of Saladin from his humble origins to his unification of fractured Muslim kingdoms and his legendary recapture of Jerusalem from the Crusaders after nearly a century of occupation. Starring Jamal Suleiman and directed by the late Hatem Ali, written by Walid Seif — the same partnership behind Palestinian Alienation — this is widely regarded as one of the finest historical dramas in Arabic television, epic in scale yet deeply human in its portrayal of leadership, faith and sacrifice.

Abu Salem is a small family living a very miserable life, and their dream is simple in life. The wife is overwhelmed as she suffers from some diseases, the husband gets into several unsuccessful adventures, and the children open their eyes to this cruel world. We follow their lives and dreams to a better tomorrow.
