Created by Nadia Tabbara and directed by Mazen Fayad, Awake (2019, 16X45') is about a young woman, Dana (Flavia Bechara), who wakes up from a coma after twelve years, unable to speak or interact with others. With the help of her family, including sisters Lama (Stephanie Atallah) and Jinane (Ruba Zaarour), she slowly comes to grips with what happened to her, and how social media has taken over the world. She realizes that she has woken up to a new world and a new, vibrant Beirut where everyone she's loved is different, and family secrets and lies begin to reveal themselves.

"Awake is a great opportunity for MHz Choice to showcase the best of TV content emerging from Lebanon," says Lance Schwulst, MHz Networks' VP of Content Strategy. "It's excellent storytelling that's set in one of the world's greatest cities. It's a perfect mix for our audience."
