Last Floor Productions

Last Floor Productions is an independent film and television production company headquartered in London, United Kingdom. Founded in 2019 by screenwriter Daniel Habib, musician Firas Abou Fakher and writer Nasri Atallah, the company develops and produces scripted entertainment, branded films and cultural content, with a particular interest in stories and creative collaborations connected to the Arab world. The company emerged during a period when streaming platforms and remote production methods were expanding the possibilities for cross-border Arabic-language entertainment. Its first major project, Doubt (Al Shak), demonstrated that model. Commissioned by MBC Group's Shahid platform, the ten-part series was created, written and produced by Nasri Atallah, Firas Abou Fakher and Daniel Charbel Habib. It was developed, produced and released in approximately six weeks during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Production was coordinated remotely across Jeddah, Beirut, London and Abu Dhabi, and the series was co-directed by Mark Eid and Fatima Al-Banawi. Later in 2020, Last Floor collaborated with Shahid again on Fixer, an eight-episode action-comedy series about a celebrity fixer operating in the Arab world. Created by Firas Abou Fakher and Daniel Charbel Habib, the series was filmed on location in Lebanon and featured Badih Abou Chakra, Diamand Bou Abboud and Wissam Saliba in leading roles. The project expanded the company's work in Arabic scripted television while maintaining its emphasis on contemporary regional stories and talent. Last Floor's work also extends beyond conventional television. In 2020, it created a six-film series for Apple featuring Indian musicians including A. R. Rahman, Divine, Raja Kumari, Aditi Ramesh, Prateek Kuhad and Lisa Mishra. In 2021, the company produced the exhibition film accompanying the Jameel Prize at London's Victoria and Albert Museum. The film profiled artists and designers whose work was influenced by Islamic traditions and was filmed across London, New York, Lahore, Riyadh, Beirut, Kolkata and Dubai. The company's publicly documented portfolio therefore spans streaming drama and comedy, music-led branded content, and museum or cultural commissions. Its positioning is defined less by a single consumer product than by production capability: developing ideas, coordinating international crews and talent, and translating regionally specific stories for broadcasters, streaming services, brands and cultural institutions. Publicly available information does not establish its current ownership structure, financial scale, executive roster beyond its named founders, or a detailed slate after the documented 2021 cultural project.

Last Floor Productions was established in London in 2019 by Daniel Habib, Firas Abou Fakher and Nasri Atallah. The founders brought together screenwriting, music and writing backgrounds, creating a production company oriented toward contemporary stories connected to the Arab world and toward international creative partnerships. Its first documented production was Doubt (Al Shak), a ten-part series commissioned by MBC Group's Shahid streaming service. Conceived, written and produced by Nasri Atallah, Firas Abou Fakher and Daniel Charbel Habib, the series was made during the most restrictive phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The production schedule was unusually compressed, with development, production and release taking place over roughly six weeks. Remote working methods enabled the project to connect teams in Jeddah, Beirut, London and Abu Dhabi. Mark Eid and Fatima Al-Banawi shared directing duties. The company continued its Shahid relationship later in 2020 with Fixer, an eight-episode action comedy centered on a celebrity fixer working in the Arab world. Created by Firas Abou Fakher and Daniel Charbel Habib, the series was filmed in Lebanon and starred Badih Abou Chakra, Diamand Bou Abboud and Wissam Saliba. Together, Doubt and Fixer established Last Floor's early identity in Arabic-language streaming entertainment and showed its ability to work across different genres. During the same year, Last Floor broadened its client and format mix by creating six films for Apple. The series featured Indian musicians including A. R. Rahman, Divine, Raja Kumari, Aditi Ramesh, Prateek Kuhad and Lisa Mishra. This work illustrated the company's capacity to produce music-led content outside its core Arab-focused positioning. In 2021, Last Floor produced the exhibition film for the Jameel Prize at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. The film presented artists and designers whose practices were informed by Islamic traditions, with filming spanning London, New York, Lahore, Riyadh, Beirut, Kolkata and Dubai. The project connected the company's production expertise with museum, design and cultural programming. The available public record describes Last Floor Productions as an independent company but does not provide confirmed information about its current ownership, revenue, employee count, later productions or formal corporate group structure. Its documented history is characterized by cross-border production, Arabic and wider regional storytelling, streaming commissions, music content and cultural commissions.
