Situé dans le golfe Persique, au large de l’Arabie Saoudite et du Qatar, Bahrein (« les deux mers » en arabe) est le plus petit et le plus surprenant des pays du Moyen-Orient. D’un côté, une architecture ultra moderne et spectaculaire, de l’autre des sites archéologiques multimillénaires à ciel ouvert. Le royaume du Bahrein se distingue aussi par son goût pour la tolérance et son sens de la fête. Les femmes y vivent librement, sans contrainte. L’Islam est la religion dominante, mais les autres religions, juive et chrétienne, s’y pratiquent ouvertement. L’homosexualité y est légale. Et, chaque vendredi, le pays est le rendez-vous de la jeunesse saoudienne qui vient se distraire dans les bars et les clubs de la capitale où l’alcool coule à flots, alors qu’il reste strictement interdit en Arabie Saoudite.
With a staggering 1112 episodes across seven seasons, 'RE: European Stories' is not your average TV series; it's an immersive experience that takes viewers on a captivating tour of Europe.

The series starts powerfully with episode 1 focusing on the right-wing populist 'Party for Freedom' (PVV) which could become the strongest force in the Dutch elections held on March 15, 2017. It portrays how this development becomes a nightmare for migrants and Muslims in the country, demonstrating how rigid positions in this once liberal flagship democracy are. The high-emotional election campaign is shown to change society significantly.
Moving further into Eastern Europe, episode 2 sheds light on Poland's growing fear of Russian invasion since the Ukraine crisis.
