Summary: | Assesses Moroccan cinema through a transnational lens to reframe its postcolonial legacyBased on interviews with key industry figures and filmmakersCase studies include the controversial Much Loved, and an analysis of its reception within and outwith MoroccoArgues that Moroccan cinema has de-orbited from Francophone cinema and Morocco's postcolonial legacy to become a transnational cinemaWatch the editors discuss the book in a webinar hosted by SOASThis is the first book length study to consider the transnational dimension of Moroccan cinema. Over the past two decades, cinematic production has increased dramatically in Morocco, with Moroccan films leading at the domestic box office and being selected for prestigious international festivals such as Cannes and Berlin. And yet, Moroccan cinema remains little known outside of its national borders. This book asks why this might be and, in so doing, analyses the actual state of Moroccan national cinema beyond a post-colonial optic. Featuring interviews with filmmakers and key industry figures, such as Hicham Laari, Nadir Boumouch and Tala Hadid, the book explores Moroccan cinema’s transnational reach through a focus on the cultural politics of international co-production, the role of international festivals as alternative distribution networks, piracy and digital disruption, film education and activism." |
