Our Family Lifeحياة عيلتنا

A 2D social comedy about Abu Sanad’s family, and one of the region’s biggest animated channels on YouTube.

Abu Sanad’s family and friends around the coffee table in their living room, drawn in 2D.

About the show

Everyday family life, played for laughs and a little satire

Abu Sanad’s family deals with what every Arab family deals with: marriage, parenting, work, the neighbours, and the pressure of all of it at once. The show meets it with humour, and now and then, a little satire.

The characters are drawn in 2D and set on 3D backgrounds. The series is owned and produced in-house by Digitales.
