23.03.2010

I was invited to the Shankaboot launching on Friday March 12th, 2010 along with many other lebanese bloggers.
It took place in Art Lounge - Karantina.

Shankaboot is an interactive web-based video series filmed in and around Beirut, Lebanon. It is the world's first Arabic Web Drama Series.

We got to know more about the project and got the privilege of watching the episodes 1, 2 and 6

About Shankaboot:

Along for the ride are the beautiful Ruwaida and the mysterious Chadi, along with a host of other memorable characters.
