Al-Awdah li Agadir is a 1967 Moroccan documentary film that chronicles the ambitious reconstruction of Agadir following the devastating 1960 earthquake that nearly erased the city from the map. Shot with a modernist, constructivist eye, the film transforms the urban rebuilding process into a visual meditation on resilience and human determination. Its imagery, akin to moving image tableaux, recalls avant-garde art traditions while grounding itself in the lived reality of a city rising from ruin. A significant document in North African cinema history, the film finds beauty and meaning in the act of collective reconstruction.
