American actor and film director Sean Penn speaks to the press during a conference at the Marrakech International Film Festival, Morocco, Tuesday, Dec. 3, 2024. Visitors queue to attend a screening during the Marrakech International Film Festival in Morocco, Monday, Dec. 2, 2024. – After the movie “Cabo Negro” screened at the Marrakech International Film Festival this week, organizers anticipating backlash whisked its crew away and canceled director Abdellah Taia’s scheduled post-film Q&A.
“What makes the identity of Marrakech unique is it creates a ... space to have prestigious big names of the industry coming very generously to meet the audience and at the same time giving a strong spotlight on new discoveries,” Remi Bonhomme, the festival’s artistic director,“There are people who think the festival is some ‘bling bling’ thing only for foreigners, only for the country’s marketing,” said Mariam El Ajraoui, a Moroccan film scholar and Abu Dhabi University professor.
“You have to get the money either in Morocco or outside Morocco,” said a producer who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of repercussions because his films often apply for state funding. Taia’s film “Cabo Negro” was a low budget endeavor with no state support, but received authorization from CCM.
Filmmakers whose work centers on social issues, regardless of the level of taboo, say their inspirations are straightforward and argue that the themes they cover are part of Moroccan life.
