  • ANIMATION in MOROCCO: NEW GENERATIONS Whilst It Is Possible
    ANIMATION IN MOROCCO: NEW GENERATIONS Whilst it is possible to catch a glimpse of animation in the Moroccan film Ali Zaoua: Prince of the Streets (2000) by Nabil Ayouch, the popularity that this film garnered with international audiences is not true for most of contemporary Moroccan animation. Where there has been attention and discussion directed at Moroccan film (Orlando, 2013, 2011, Carter, 2009, Dwyer, 2007, Hennebelle, 1976), it was hard to come by evidence of discourses in academic literature on Moroccan animation.1 Filmmaking in Morocco occurred as far back as the early 1900’s, with the establishment of the Centre Cinematographique Marocain in 1944 and the production of two Moroccan post-colonial feature-length films made in 1968 (Carter, 2009). This history has contributed to the visibility and support that Moroccan cinema has garnered on local and international platforms. Nevertheless the same was not visible in the case of animation, resulting here in a sporadic collection of accounts that are by no means a comprehensive narrative of the existence and development of this form in Morocco. As other accounts of the animated form have demonstrated (Wells, 1997, Pilling, 1998), this peripheral status is not unique to Moroccan animation. The outlying position of animation in relation to film, for example, has resulted in the tardy establishment of the field of animation studies within discourses on the moving image in Europe and America. However, in the case of animations produced outside of these geographies (Bendazzi, 1994) the condition is compounded further and animation studies scholars can only offer piecemeal narratives and brief glimpses of animations from further afield.

It’s Ocelot’s first foray into 3D, which works wonderfully well alongside his use of crisp, classic silhouette animation, creating a layered, kaleidoscopic effect that feels unusual and dramatic. The film weaves together six exotic fables which unfold in Tibet, medieval Europe, an Aztec kingdom, the African savannah, and the Land of the Dead; all enacted by a young boy and girl who meet up with an elderly technician in a dilapidated cinema at night. Creating the stories, visualising the time periods and making up the costumes, they are then – courtesy of a little bit of magic – dressed and inserted into the very fabric of the narratives themselves. History blends with fairytale in Ocelot’s imaginative storytelling, and we are transported to lands inhabited by dragons, captive princesses, sorcerers, and enormous talking bees – each fable ending with its own ironic, dryly comic twist.
