Auf der Suche nach Ola

I have to admit that I couldn't wait to leave a review even after only starting the first episode. I wasn't sure I wanted to watch something Arabic so I checked out the trailer and was immediately hooked! Into the first episode my liking for the show was confirmed! I love finding out that we are all the same with the same problems.

Netflix has productions going on all over the world. Some are bad some are mediocre and some are excellent! This for sure is one of the latter!

I got attached to the main protagonist right away because her circumstances are so familiar and you get immersed in her story!

Can't wit to continue and I'll probably will bing watch this gem!

BTW I love watching with the original language, I find I get used to it very quickly and it makes watching the show much more authentic!

It's just an amazing show, the level of the realistic senior is huge, it's in the heart of the topical arabs culture ,the non-spoken norms.

You will immediately fall in love within the main characters, the struggles, the ups and downs.

The soundtrack, songs lyrics are carefully designed to make your own experience better.

I highly recommend to watch it in the original language, the experience was amazingly funny.

I just love it 😉. Enjoy watching it.

This series shows a side of Egyptian life which may or may not exist. If it does exist, it can only be relevant to, and enjoyed by the minority of the population with money, who are extremely wealthy. However, Egyptian cinema has always set itself up as the Hollywood of the Arab world, never real, always looking to appear westernized and separated from the reality in the country. While this may work for some of the countries in the Middle East e.g Lebanon, Israel, it does not work for all, especially those in which a western lifestyle does not match the "lived" reality in the country.

It is the comedic timing and acting skills of the lead actress, Hind Sabri, that carries the show. The series plays a lot like a weekly American Sitcom that is focused around modern family dynamics. While this series is funny at the start, they often have a finite lifetime so would be very unsure if a second season for this series would work.

Love this series. I love discovering on Netflix cinema and series from all over the world. Like people were able to do in the past, on the radio, finding stations from other countries. Finding Ola is very well produced, very well acted and really hilariously funny at times. Hind Sabri, most of all is excellent. The woman knows how to act: drama, comedy, she has it all in her. Hello, Hollywood...?

An amazing show about women's empowerment, and the challenges divorced women face in our society , dealt with light/dark humor , the cast had perfect synergy & hind sabri was great as expected !

Looking forward for next seasons .
