# Dhliz (الدهليز)

> Dhliz (dhliz.com) is a comprehensive, bilingual (Arabic and English) database of Arab arts: films, television series, stage plays and the artists behind them. Each work and artist page offers essential facts, full cast and crew, editorial and community ratings, biographies, collaboration and family networks, quotes, trivia and image galleries.

Dhliz is served in Arabic by default at the site root and in English under the /en/ path; every film, series, play and artist has an equivalent page in both languages, each carrying schema.org structured data (Movie, TVSeries, CreativeWork, Person) with canonical and hreflang links and sameAs links to Wikidata, Wikipedia and IMDb. Poster and photo media is served from media.dhliz.com.

The catalogue currently holds roughly 3,900 films, 1,600 TV series, 31,000 artists, 1,700 production entities (studios, channels and organisations), and 17 stage plays.
