Overview

Sharaf (Honour) is an original Weyyak Arabic drama series that confronts the deeply sensitive social concept of so-called 'honour' and its devastating consequences for women. At the centre of the story is Asia, a nurse who makes the bold and controversial decision to help young women facing out-of-wedlock pregnancies — circumstances that in her society can lead to lethal consequences carried out in the name of family honour. The series poses a provocative central question: can a noble cause be served through morally contested means? A courageous and unflinching drama that challenges Arab audiences to interrogate inherited social codes.
