The veil is a series of documentaries looking at women and fashion across the Muslim world. Besides filming in countries like Yemen, Dubai, Egypt and the UK, the crew also visits The Netherlands. The series has a strong fashion and cultural angle, but for example also looks at the music scene in the Netherlands.
The Veil is about debunking myths and challenging stereo types, hoping that the series will introduce the BBC audience to Muslim women who wear the veil, but are as individual in personality and character. It is this individuality that will make audiences stand up and take note of the woman beneath the veil.
For this documentary series Featurez gave advice and did research.
