Overview

Fallujah is a Tunisian drama series inspired by true events, turning its lens on a battlefield far from the front lines: the corridors of Tunisian secondary institutes, where serious behavioral crises among adolescent students have become a social emergency. The series examines drug use, violence, and moral disorientation through multiple intertwined storylines, following students, teachers, and families as they collide with these challenges in different ways. By grounding its narrative in real documented cases, Fallujah makes a provocative argument: that the wars being fought inside schools and homes can be just as destructive to a society as any armed conflict.
