Programme Overview
Description
From the creative team behind Tehran, Manayek, and Absentia comes Nutuk, a gripping drama where reincarnation serves as the emotional and narrative engine that drives a suspenseful investigation story.
When stopping to fill up their car with gas, parents Rami and Maya Fares suddenly realize their 7-year-old son Daniel has gone missing. When he re-appears several minutes later, Daniel tells them that he's been with his brother. But Daniel is an only child.
Daniel's parents dismiss the incident as childish fantasy. But when Daniel begins to recall more and more vivid memories, they understand that their son may be undergoing "nutuk" - meaning "reincarnation" in the Druze community.
Daniel's visions point to the unsolved disappearance of a man named Ali Khiradin... a man Daniel believes was murdered. His nutuk sends the Fares family headfirst into a criminal conspiracy that the perpetrators have tried to keep buried for years - and will stop at nothing to protect.
