It did not take Nasri Atallah, Firas Abou Fakher and Daniel Habib long to decide to start their own production company.
The three friends, who have a shared passion for film and television, were already collaborating on a number of projects and so teaming up happened almost organically.
Abou Fakher, one of the founders of Lebanese indie-pop band Mashrou’ Leila, is a composer and producer, while Habib is a writer and producer who teaches scriptwriting at the Lebanese Academy of Fine Arts in Beirut. Atallah is a published writer and producer, who also advises creatives on strategy.
When those skillsets are combined, they create a formidable team.
"Last summer, just out of conversations [while] hanging out, we figured we wanted to do something together around film and television," Atallah tells The National from his home in London.
"As we had that idea, people started asking us to pitch stuff before we even told anyone we were thinking about it, so that is kind of where all of this started."
Abou Fakher, who is in Jdeideh, Lebanon, said things started to snowball after that.
“We had to keep up and we were forced into it much quicker than we thought."
But it is something the friends are very happy about, as that is how their new company, Last Floor Productions, was created.
However, what none of them realised then was that their newly registered production company’s first show would be written, cast and entirely produced amid a pandemic.
Al Shak (The Doubt), a Shahid Original series, is a 10-episode psychological thriller that tells the story of a Saudi woman who has to deal with a past trauma while in isolation. It stars Saudi actress Fatima Al Banawi and Syrian actor Qusai Khouli, and the first episode was released on June 14.
While every show has its own process, Al Shak had a unique one, as the team had to consider the global crisis.
“Everything was happening through a computer screen," Abou Fakher explains. "It was incredibly strange, to be honest. We were Skyping when we were writing the script. We were on Zoom for hours a day, and then everybody would take their little part and work on it. We would talk to the team in Jeddah and talk to the director,” he says.
They worked in small crews between Beirut, London and Jeddah, where the show is set. The key, Habib says, was for everyone in the team to be flexible and have the ability to don different hats.
“The muscle and body of the show was us having to troubleshoot and be able to problem solve,” he says.
But, in a way, the show’s concept, being set during the pandemic, supported this and other aspects, such as the use of GoPro cameras and filming through a computer screen.
They also decided to change the story’s setting.
“There are limitations, there are restrictions, but we try to find creative ways of telling stories within those frames,” Abou Fakher says.
“We have the ability to tell the story in a lot of ways. What are the limits and what will get this show on air? This is a different model of thinking.”
This way of thinking has inspired them as they write the stories they want to tell moving forward. It is a model they say really works when you are part of a committed group. “You are in an industry where you are not making a small, intimate short film that is going to show at film festivals,” Atallah says.
“You are doing something that needs to work immediately and you are going to be ruthlessly judged if it does not, and it is going to affect your ability to work again, and your ability to hire 20, 30 people on every project.”
That encapsulates the state of today’s film and TV industry, which, globally, moves at an enormously fast pace.
Now, Last Floor Productions is working with its team of writers on two new shows and two feature films. And they are always pitching fresh ideas.
When asked about the kind of work they want to produce as a company, the three of them reply: "Good genre films and TV."
Abou Fakher explains: “When you watch a good genre film, whether it is a horror film or action film, or gangster film, at the core of those films are very human stories.
“Fiction genre is the foreground of our storytelling and then we start to fit in all the things that we are going through,” he says.
Habib adds: “We want to make content from the Arab world or about the Arab world that comes from this region one way or another, that we would be interested to watch."
For them, the dichotomy that exists in the Arab world between commercial and auteur filmmaking leaves a huge gap for creators, such as themselves, to step in.
“With the rise of streaming, and the rise of platforms like Shahid, there's a good middle ground, where you are able to tell stories that are based in reality and have a message and a core, [but] still cater to a large viewing audience,” Abou Fakher says.
That is exactly what the Last Floor Productions team is trying to achieve.
Ultimately, the three friends want their projects to not only be from and for the Arab world, but also appeal to an international audience.
“I am location agnostic," Atallah says. "I would love to film in Jordan. I would love to film in Sudan. I’d love to film in Europe and tell stories of Arabs in Europe or in North America or Latin America.
“We are so agnostic as to where we tell these stories, as long as they are compelling and genre-driven and are a new form of storytelling about Arabs – we don’t mind where they are happening.”

The smuggler
Eldarir had arrived at JFK in January 2020 with three suitcases, containing goods he valued at $300, when he was directed to a search area.
Officers found 41 gold artefacts among the bags, including amulets from a funerary set which prepared the deceased for the afterlife.
Also found was a cartouche of a Ptolemaic king on a relief that was originally part of a royal building or temple.
The largest single group of items found in Eldarir’s cases were 400 shabtis, or figurines.
Khouli conviction
Khouli smuggled items into the US by making false declarations to customs about the country of origin and value of the items.
According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, he provided “false provenances which stated that [two] Egyptian antiquities were part of a collection assembled by Khouli's father in Israel in the 1960s” when in fact “Khouli acquired the Egyptian antiquities from other dealers”.
He was sentenced to one year of probation, six months of home confinement and 200 hours of community service in 2012 after admitting buying and smuggling Egyptian antiquities, including coffins, funerary boats and limestone figures.
For sale
A number of other items said to come from the collection of Ezeldeen Taha Eldarir are currently or recently for sale.
Their provenance is described in near identical terms as the British Museum shabti: bought from Salahaddin Sirmali, "authenticated and appraised" by Hossen Rashed, then imported to the US in 1948.

Electoral College Victory
Trump has so far secured 295 Electoral College votes, according to the Associated Press, exceeding the 270 needed to win. Only Nevada and Arizona remain to be called, and both swing states are leaning Republican. Trump swept all five remaining swing states, North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, sealing his path to victory and giving him a strong mandate.
Popular Vote Tally
The count is ongoing, but Trump currently leads with nearly 51 per cent of the popular vote to Harris’s 47.6 per cent. Trump has over 72.2 million votes, while Harris trails with approximately 67.4 million.

Dubai works towards better air quality by 2021
Dubai is on a mission to record good air quality for 90 per cent of the year – up from 86 per cent annually today – by 2021.
The municipality plans to have seven mobile air-monitoring stations by 2020 to capture more accurate data in hourly and daily trends of pollution.
These will be on the Palm Jumeirah, Al Qusais, Muhaisnah, Rashidiyah, Al Wasl, Al Quoz and Dubai Investment Park.
“It will allow real-time responding for emergency cases,” said Khaldoon Al Daraji, first environment safety officer at the municipality.
“We’re in a good position except for the cases that are out of our hands, such as sandstorms.
“Sandstorms are our main concern because the UAE is just a receiver.
“The hotspots are Iran, Saudi Arabia and southern Iraq, but we’re working hard with the region to reduce the cycle of sandstorm generation.”
Mr Al Daraji said monitoring as it stood covered 47 per cent of Dubai.
There are 12 fixed stations in the emirate, but Dubai also receives information from monitors belonging to other entities.
“There are 25 stations in total,” Mr Al Daraji said.
“We added new technology and equipment used for the first time for the detection of heavy metals.
“A hundred parameters can be detected but we want to expand it to make sure that the data captured can allow a baseline study in some areas to ensure they are well positioned.”
