WITH
DANNY BURMAWI

Forbidden Talk (كلام حرام) is a bold and thought-provoking program that breaks social taboos, challenges deeply ingrained cultural, religious, and political narratives, and exposes controversial topics often considered “off-limits” in the Arab world. By engaging in fearless dialogue, the show aims to deconstruct misinformation, question societal norms, and uncover the unspoken truths shaping public opinion.
Focused on the power of storytelling, Forbidden Talk sheds light on sensitive issues like freedom, justice, and personal liberties, while tackling topics such as political ideologies, religious conflicts, and cultural practices. With sharp analysis and an unapologetic tone, it invites viewers to critically evaluate long-standing assumptions, empowering them to rethink their perspectives and embrace intellectual and ideological transformation.

In 2024, we produced a 6-episode season that explored the history and reality of the Arab-Israeli conflict—a topic presented in Arabic with exceptional depth and authenticity. This groundbreaking content filled a gap in Arabic-language discourse, offering a fresh and factual perspective on one of the region’s most enduring and contentious issues.

Looking ahead to 2025, Forbidden Talk aims to produce a 13-episode season with a more professional setting, elevating the production quality and expanding its scope. This upcoming season will interact with weekly news, analyze current events, and provide historical perspectives rooted in facts. By challenging false ideologies and presenting alternative narratives, Forbidden Talk continues to empower viewers to think critically and engage in meaningful, transformative conversations.
