Musical
Brotherhoods from the Trans-Saharan Highway
dir.
Hisham Mayet, Morocco/USA, 2006, video, 57 mins, color
An
assortment of spectacular musical dramas presented live and
unfiltered on the home turf of the world's most dynamic string/drum
specialists performing
and
manifesting the ecstatic truth! Ancient mystical brotherhoods
have been flourishing for centuries in and around the cities
of Marrakesh and Essaouira in Morocco where the trade caravans
have gathered from their long journeys across the Trans-Saharan
Highway. This is some of the last great street music on Earth.
