Morocco: The Past and Present of Djemma el Fna
Arabs and Westerners meet at Marrakech's famous square, which, has for
years, stirred the imagination of visitors. This documentary captures the
color, romance and spiritual atmosphere that once led visitors such as Edith
Wharton, Eleanor Roosevelt, and later, hippies of the 1970s to marvel at its
magic.
More than a tourist spectacle, the square with its storytellers, musicians,
acrobats and snake charmers, embodies centuries-old cultural traditions. Our
Moroccan guide informs us of the square's history as a destination for
caravans from the Sahara and how from earliest times it has been a center
for the dissemination of ideas. He weaves his way through the square which
is overflowing with performers including the snake charmer, Belaid Farrous
and his young son who hopes to carry on his family's profession. We watch
Western visitors enjoy their exchanges with people who at first appeared
strange and exotic. In turn Moroccans show their interest in foreigners and
the world beyond Morocco they represent. Always, our guide points to the
importance of tradition and hospitality in the Arab world.
