Extremism in Saudi Arabia

In Post Production

For decades, Saudi society has been managed by the CPVPV – the religious police –  but their power began to become oppressive, putting at harm Saudi citizens and stunting the ability of society and the economy to grow. The stranglehold the religious factions had on Saudi society had to be loosened if Saudi was ever to achieve success under Vision 2030. This is the story of how the once mighty religious police was cut down, allowing Saudi society to open. ​

The Evolution of Women’s Rights in Saudi Arabia

In Post Production

Giving women the right to drive joins a number of other huge social and economic Vision2030 reforms which are transforming the way Saudis live and work. Yet, the government’s crackdown on extremist and radical dissent attracts criticism from the Western media and governments—most dramatically, Canada. To neutralize this criticism, the crown prince continues to build networks of support and investment for Vision2030, requiring him to walk an increasingly narrow tightrope​.

With mounting evidence and the finger pointing at Iran, this film charts the acrimonious geopolitical relationship between the two leading Islamic powers in the Middle East. ​
