“Asfur,” meaning “bird” in Arabic, is Jerusalem slang for a loser, someone with no prospects. The series takes place in an industrial area among garages, in a small valley where a neglected piece of land lies with three abandoned bus carcasses at its center. Seemingly a junkyard, it is in fact the “kingdom” of our heroes, street guys, hopeless underdogs, who decided to quit the rat race. In their small kingdom, inside the refurbished buses, they live without taxes, bank accounts, social security, or any nonsense. They work off the books, smoke, party, and sway on life’s hammock… until the rope is cut.

A modern adaptation of the Biblical tale of Saul and David, taking place in an abandoned military base. Following escalations throughout the West Bank, a paratrooper platoon under Shaul’s command is sent to reconstruct an old military base, abandoned twenty years earlier.

The base is named “Hammam” after an ancient bathhouse site located in the nearby wadi, where a Bedouin tribe has claimed the ruins of an ancient castle. A series of mysterious events lead Shaul to believe the base is cursed, as he slowly loses his sanity.

Finally, he loses touch with reality and is replaced by Dudi – the platoon’s humblest, most introverted soldier – who soon falls prey to the curse himself.

When 24-year-old Noam hits rock bottom, he finds his own route to normality in the unlikeliest of places: the psych ward. “Normal” tells the story of a young columnist struggling to establish himself as a writer, and not lose his mind in the process. A challenging task since his father is famous not only for his great talent as a writer, but also for his outrageous borderline personality. A veteran of the psych ward himself, Noam’s father has him committed following a nervous breakdown, fueled by a deadly combination of drugs. He hardly expects this would turn out to be the one place where he finally finds a sense of peace and belonging, and comes to acknowledge the vast differences between his father and himself. No wonder then that he’s actually disappointed when he’s finally discharged – for being totally normal…

It’s been thirty years since ESAU has abandoned Israel for a new life in America. A teenager – he left behind his land, family, and his baker’s legacy. His past shattered – yet he hasn’t built anything new to replace it with. No wife, nor kids – an empty house. His books about bread are popular – but a true writer he is not. A late night phone call transforms his existence. A familiar female whisper – begging for his help. He goes back home. To Israel.

There he is greeted by his family. His father, ABRAHAM, his twin brother JACOB, Jacob’s daughter, ROMI. There’s one person he’s trying to meet but can’t – LEAH: Jacob’s wife, Esau’s first love. She hides behind the locked door of BENJAMINS’s former room: her firstborn, who died serving in the army. Esau is convinced that Leah is the one who made the night call begging for help.

Memories surface in Esau’s mind with his family history unraveling via flashbacks and voice over. This history will become the foundation for his new book, his first genuine novel.

Esau reappearance will wake up all the family conflicts that hided under the surface for the last decades, and the complicated, dramatic, and at times unbelievable story of the family will reach it’s boiling point and finally a resolution.

Behind every prisoner, there is a story. And behind each story there are horrible crimes, dangerous friendships, unspeakable betrayals, bloody wars between two sides. This prequel of El Marginal takes back the time to reveal the stories locked up in San Onofre

How did the Borges brothers do to go from “declassed” to “capos” of the prison? What is the source of the Sub-21? What was the limit that Antin cross to create the network of corruption that allows him to handle dirty business from San Onofre? Who was Emma when she started to work as social assistant and how much the prison change her?

Season 2 responds to all these questions and presents new characters. A locked up doctor for a crime he didn´t commit. A prisoner who rules the prison in a bloody way. An official corrupted by the system. A prisoner – almost teen – who might begin a revolution. With offices in Switzerland, Israel, Argentina, Spain and Asia, DMD does not only distribute its own shows but were also chosen by other production companies and format owners to act as their distributor in the international market.

The bands we knew are not form yet. The prisoners from season 1 (like César, James, Morcilla and Pedro) integrate others factions under the orders of different referents. The Borges end up breaking in to the prison but they are far away to rule it. Mario has no power. Diosito is an innocent kid yet.

In the middle of all of this, we found Patricio. A high-class doctor who doesn´t belong to this violent environment. The only one capable of saving lifes among so much death. The alliances that The Borges an Patricio create, is the only thing that might lean on the balance to any side in their war against El Sapo, the prisoner who rules the prison at his whim.
