Overview
"Darb Al-Zalaq" is a classic Kuwaiti TV series that offers a window into Gulf Arab culture through the comedic and often poignant tale of two brothers, Hussein and Saad. Driven by their desire for quick wealth, they embark on a series of ill-fated business ventures, only to find themselves repeatedly caught in the traps of their own making. Set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society, the series explores themes of greed, family ties, and the unpredictable twists of fate that are central to Arab storytelling. Through humor and satire, "Darb Al-Zalaq" reflects the challenges of balancing tradition and modernity in the Gulf, making it a cultural touchstone that resonates with audiences across generations.
