RIYADH — Intigral, the leading provider of digital entertainment & sports in MENA, has unveiled its new comedy series “Hourly” (Bel Sa’a) that debuted on its online entertainment platform ‘Jawwy TV’ last Thursday.

“Bel Sa’a” forms the 3rd complete Saudi production to be aired on the platform and comes following the great success and high ratings achieved by Jawwy TV’s original “Galbat Jad” and “Studio Al Mashaher” shows.

The new series was originally created by Omar Al-Dini, with the story, scenario and dialogue developed by Farouk Al-Shuaibi.

It is directed by Tunisian director Asaad Al-Waslati, and features a number of talented Saudi actors and actresses, most notably Sarah Al-Yafie, Rawan Al-Alaiwi, Qamar Al-Turk, Abdullah Al-Jumairi, Maryam Al-Ghamdi, Hind Mohammed, and Nayef Khalaf.

The series utilizes a comedy-thriller approach to narrate the challenges faced by two women, Amal and Asma, who launch a domestic-workers’ office based on a pay-by-the-hour system and run wholly by women. It follows their struggle to pay-off their one-million-riyal bank loan after being swindled by the individual who provides workers for recruitment agencies.

Through ‘Jawwy TV’, the leading OTT digital entertainment platform, Intigral emphasizes its ongoing quest to present distinctive and unique content, as well as increase exclusive productions in order to boost Saudi cinema productions and showcase Saudi talent.

Moreover, Intigral is currently working on broadcasting two new productions before the holy month of Ramadan including “FBI” comedy series, which deals with issues of pre-marriage between men and women, and “La Nwaqef” program, which sheds light on self-affirmation and future building among Saudi youth through following the expeditions of three young Saudis traveling around the Kingdom on their motorcycles.
