WIDE ANGLE cameras
are on location in Morocco as history is made. In May 2006,
an imam academy in the city of Rabat holds a graduation
ceremony, but the class of 2006 is no ordinary group of
students. Standing side by side with the male graduates are
50 women pioneers, among the first group of women to be
officially trained as religious leaders in the Arab world.
Empowered to do everything that male imams do – except lead
Friday prayer in mosques – these women will fan out across
Morocco to work as spiritual guides in mosques, schools,
hospitals, and prisons, even hosting their own television
and radio talk shows.

war against terrorism? For the first time, Adil Cherkaoui

Fork in the Road:
Morocco Episode

Pria Viswalingam

 Morocco, a
surprising land of sun, surf, sand, and even snow, is a
moderate Islamic country caught between two worlds. It is
trying to hold on to its past while simultaneously trying to
accommodate the winds of economic and social globalisation
that are sweeping the world. In the ancient city of Fez,
Pria Viswalingam meets a poor tanner trying to earn enough
to feed his family. He toils in an old leather tannery using
methods that have remained unchanged for centuries. This man
is just one example of contemporary Moroccans struggling to
deal with the new directions their country is taking.

has been broadcast on Britain's Discovery Channel and The

Western Sahara
Conflict
Documentary
MEGA TV - Greece
In Greek
television’s first historical documentary series, MEGA
Channel's reporter and international correspondent, Sotirios
Danezis, travelled around the world to a number of former
frontlines in a quest to discover the reasons that led to
war. The creators of MEGA's documentary series travelled
from the Middle East and Vietnam to Rwanda and Panama.
Sotirios Danezis & Nikos Mistriotis travelled to Morocco in
2005 to work on Western Sahara conflict. After meeting
Khalid Fakhar of MPN, they travelled together to Laayoune,
in the south of Morocco, where they met with several old
prisoners. As always, working in the Western Sahara was an
intense and heated process.
