Lost village

Tucked away in the Syrian mountains, the fictional village of Umm al-Tanafs al-Fawqa has been completely bypassed by modern technology — and its simple, warm-hearted residents have no idea what they're missing. Each episode follows their hilarious attempts to navigate life's big and small dramas with nothing but common sense, stubbornness and each other. A gentle, sharp satire that uses village innocence as a mirror for modern society's complications — described by many viewers as the greatest Arab comedy ever made.
