Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent Rising Saudi Arabian star Yaqoub Alfarhan, who is known for playing the titular drug trafficker and serial killer in hit MBC TV series “Rashash,” plays a very different role in the drama “Norah” by pioneering Saudi director Tawfik Alzaidi, which is set in 1990s Saudi Arabia when conservatism was at its height and all forms of art and painting were banned for religion-related reasons.

System of a Down Frontman Serj Tankian and Director Michael Goorjian on Armenia’s Oscar Candidate ‘Amerikatsi’ and Why the Country Is ‘Going Western’
