Les voix du secret

The best thing about this series is that they broke the cycle of ramadan 30 episodes, the acting is not that bad there are some good acting and bad acting from the actors and actresses, the story is enjoyable, the director made a good job no doubt, the bad things in the show are few but noticeable the biggest problem and it's the only that i did not like is using english words in the script but overall enjoyable show

Just to be clear, this is not a Netflix production, they bought after seeing all episodes. So I would not consider this as a Netflix "original series". The show is boring with very slow pace. Focus on characters was a good approach but unfortunately with very weak execution. I hope Netflix invest on high quality and big production original content that really promotes Saudi culture, we have tons of shows like this one in the Arabic channels.

I like to watch these Arab series but really could not get into this one at all. It's not well done, the acting is forced, and the dialog and script (i guess) must be heavily censored. As such, the translated dialog comes across as very forced and childish. It's really pretty terrible!

I lived with a Saudi woman in 1977 and I was wondering how women would be portrayed today, so I'm sticking with this drama. I'm only into a couple episodes, and had I read some reviews I would have understood the change of perspective. I kept waiting for the wife to appear. I really had to check if this wasn't a Turkish production (although the language is Arabic), as I've enjoyed dramas from Turkey. The music and the women's makeup seems very Turkish. I enjoyed Abdul Mohsen Alnimer in the Platform - great actor. After watching K-dramas, this drama seems rather unsophisticated from a technical point of view. I'm glad that Netflix is bringing the world together and exposing us to emotions expressed in different languages.

Netflix's first Saudi Arabian licensed original. The eight-episode 'Whispers' features a predominantly Saudi Arabian female cast and is helmed by the female director, Hana Alomair.

'Whispers' follows a family dealing with the death of the family patriarch, Hassan (Abdul Mohsen Alnimer). Just a few days before the launch of his new company's smart application, he dies in a car accident. Secrets about his mysterious past begin to surface and his wife, Amal, and their daughters, Wa'ad and Sawsan, will have to deal with the consequences while uncovering what really happened to Hassan.

Each episode of the first season covers more or less the same timeline but is told from multiple characters' perspectives - as such, viewers will also have to keep in mind that the characters could be unreliable narrators. The 'Rashomon'-style telling of Hassan's story from the women in his lives helps us see the character through their eyes - his wife, his sister, his colleague, his daughter, his step-daughter, and a few surprising characters.
