A tale of redemption and vengeance
The story revolves around a woman who has experienced a dramatic fall from grace. A mere shadow of her former self, she navigates through the aftermath of a once thriving career, grappling with loss and seeking solace in being a haven for others in need. Beneath her calm and near-perfect demeanor lies a hidden thirst for vengeance, as she sets out to confront those responsible for her personal tragedies.

Exploring a rigged society
Set in contemporary Nigeria, The Hidden serves as a mirror to a society plagued by corruption and inequality. It delves into a world where the strong prey on the weak, where culture and tradition are weaponized for oppression, and where motives are twisted and manipulated at will. Against this backdrop, the series exposes the harsh realities of a rigged society and the various conflicts that arise as characters grapple with their circumstances.
The House
The house in which the story unfolds becomes a character in itself, holding within its walls a tapestry of history, stories, and experiences that yearn to be revealed while begging to be forgotten. As the series progresses, layers are peeled back, revealing a world that is both inspirational and foreboding. Vibrant quotes, engaging books, a kaleidoscope of colors, an extensive garden, and a serene yet bustling cityscape create a dynamic backdrop for 'The Hidden.' The diverse ethnicities and dialects further enrich the tapestry of this gripping drama.
Ominous, foreboding, and off-kilter
The Hidden sets a distinct tone that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. The series masterfully weaves an atmosphere of ominous anticipation and foreboding, leaving audiences unsure of what lies ahead. Each character, including the enigmatic house, plays a vital role in unraveling the complex web of secrets and emotions.
