Overview

Fakhar Al Suwaidi (فخر السويدي) is a Saudi comedy series set in a secondary school in the Al-Suwaidi neighbourhood. The series follows Shahin Dabkah, an ambitious school principal who makes the impulsive decision to establish a dedicated 'Sharia class' as a way to distinguish his institution from its rivals and assert its academic identity. What begins as a well-intentioned — if eccentric — initiative quickly snowballs into a series of hilarious and unpredictable situations, exposing the contradictions and comic tensions of everyday life in a contemporary Arab educational setting. A crowd-pleasing comedy that uses its premise to gently satirize bureaucracy, tradition, and ambition.
