Program Note
Casablanca has become an underworld. Rocker Larsen, who can no longer sing, falls in love with Raja, a sex worker. She hopes to escape from her pimp. They dream of getting out of Casablanca by sharing their trauma and singing together. El Iraki’s feature debut is a melodrama with a rock and roll rhythm. Crossing Casablanca, it shows the rookie’s ambition to capture all the joy that realism and genre movies can give. It creates an unpredictable tension and shows images of Moroccan rock, spaghetti westerns, and a grazing viper in the 1970s. The blinding images reveal Morocco’s social trauma. (CHOI Yeon Woo)
