Said is a young Muslim songwriter living in Auckland, New Zealand who forms a dangerous friendship with the Security Intelligence Service agent spying on him, risking his whole community to fulfil his dreams. Drawing on the author Mohamed Hassan’s real-world knowledge as Aotearoa’s foremost reporter on surveillance, counter-terrorism and Islamophobia, this six-part series combines drama and comedy in its exploration of a Muslim diaspora hitherto barely glimpsed on the screen. Led by Arlo Green as Said, an authentic cast of Australian and Kiwi actors convey a dark but hopeful story – laced with humour and music - about the tribulations of youth, overcoming mental illness and ultimately finding a unique place in the world.
