When award-winning explorer and filmmaker Reza Pakravan ventures into uncharted territories across the Asian Arabian Peninsula, he encounters his fears and, eventually, overcomes the apprehensions and accomplishes his goals.
Reza is known for his expeditions to remote corners of the globe. So when Saudi Arabia was opened for the world he wanted to lead a team on a journey into the region’s uncharted territories. His expedition and almost two years of filming resulted in a six-part series, Hidden Frontiers: Arabia. The series dropped on Discovery Channel and discovery+ on May 13.
Reza says, “We had set out on a journey to unravel Saudi Arabia. We discovered caves and canyons in which no human being is believed to have set foot. We found that Oman had a similar story to tell. Saudi Arabia was the trigger for our adventure, the rest followed and allowed us to narrate a beautiful story about different species, habitation and water sources.”
