The series takes Zee, Farah, Karim, and Caramella from their backyard into outer space, deep under the sea, way back into time, sledding across Antarctica, and all around the world!
A spinning compass opens up a portal and whisks the adventurers to wherever their curiosity takes them! As each new journey comes to an end, Zee’s special watch begins to beep, reminding her that it is time to head back home.
“The series promotes the Arabic language and highlights Arab culture while exploring universal themes such as teamwork, cultural tolerance and climate change in fun and engaging ways,” says Avantika Hari Agarwal, a filmmaker and writer / director of the series.
Produced by Growl Media, The Adventures of Zee – Season 1 will be available to view for free on YouTube and the app can be downloaded from the Samsung Galaxy App Store, Apple App Store and later on Google Play Store.
