The introduction video

Who are the Watchers?

It all starts with Noura, a bright and serious girl born in a port city in the Maghreb. Surrounded by unsafe products, she becomes an observer who guides, investigates, asks questions and raises awareness.

But she is not alone: around the world, her cousins face the same reality. Together, they form the Watchers' Club to understand how counterfeiting works and unmask it. Thanks to a receiver, they alert one another throughout their adventures.
