Synopsis

In these ten 25-minute episodes, we’ll take a journey through the life of Abdulla and other renowned social media influencers from the Middle East. Join as each of the ensemble cast gives exclusive access into their high-end lifestyles, entrepreneurial ventures, management teams and personal lives. In this competitive and cut-throat influencer industry, we’ll tag along as they each put their finances, reputations and cultural integrity on the line to burst onto the world stage in style. We’ll see high-end magazine photoshoots, international fashion shows, clothing and brands being produced, friendships and relationships being formed (and breaking), all the while the cast is trying to avoid being wrapped up into the haters on social media and the demands of a conservative culture and family. ‘In The Life of Abdulla’, audiences will join our high-profile influencers as they challenge stereotypes, modernize Middle Eastern fashion and take their influences global despite the preconceived notions of the region.

About the Director

As the son of an ambassador, Abdulla Al-Abdulla grew up travelling the globe and developed a keen interest in the fashion industry. As a Qatari native, Abdulla’s style has a quintessential Middle Eastern touch, but still incorporates a vast Western flare. He’s a regular at the London, Paris, New York and Milan Fashion Weeks, and has been featured in various publications like Harper’s Bazaar, Grazia, Ahlan Magazine and Glam. As a high-profile influencer, Abdulla has collaborated with countless brands such a Louis Vuitton, Dior, Balmain, Etro and Chaumet—where he stands at the crossroads between Middle Eastern and Western culture.
