We recently binge watched Netflix’s AlRawabi School for Girls and it quickly became one of our favorite television shows. We loved the series so much that TV binger Marilyn savoured it over a few days, and TV savourer Rhea binged it in just one night. We decided to take our conversation to the podcast and breakdown our thoughts and reactions to the series. We discussed how authentic the show felt in how it portrayed the teenage Arab girl experience, how beautifully constructed and paced the series is and who is our favorite character. Ultimately, AlRawabi School for Girls is a series written and directed by Arab women who so aptly and honestly illustrate the pressures carried on the shoulders of Arab women from a young age.
