"Women's Wiles": Recasting Moroccan Berber Space in Film"
Since 1999 Moroccan women filmmakers have been reshaping the contours of their country. Not only are they promoting daring transformations in socio-cultural mores, they are also seeking to recapture past effaced stories of women, minorities, children and the oppressed of Moroccan history. This paper will consider the cinematographic works of filmmakers such as Narjis Nejjar, Farida Benlyazid, and Yasmine Kassari as they seek to redefine the parameters of feminine and minority spaces in Morocco.
