The Falcon of Quraish
Plot
When the Abbasids overthrow the Umayyad Caliphate in Damascus, slaughtering nearly the entire dynasty, one young prince escapes - Abd al-Rahman. Hunted across deserts and seas, he eventually reaches the fringes of the Muslim world and, through sheer will and political genius, founds a new Umayyad emirate in Andalusia. Written by Walid Seif and directed by Hatem Ali, this is the first chapter of their celebrated Andalusian trilogy - epic, human and historically meticulous.

How the Pulse Score works
For series, Pulse starts from the IMDb rating shrunk by vote count, then applies FORMAT CALIBRATION. Series score systematically higher than films on IMDb, so using the raw number would unfairly push a show like The Falcon of Quraish to the top of a film catalogue. Calibration maps the series distribution onto the film one; meaning 67 is COMPARABLE to a film with the same Pulse.
One more difference from films: Letterboxd does not track series, so series Pulse derives from a single source (IMDb) rather than two.
