HAIYU: Rebel Singer Mariem Hassan and the Struggle for a Free Western Sahara is a documentary portrait of Mariem Hassan, whose defiant music became a voice for the Sahrawi people's struggle for self-determination. The film weaves together her personal quest for her homeland's independence with the broader historical arc of Western Sahara — from Spanish colonisation through Morocco's subsequent occupation. A rich blend of music, politics, and biography, HAIYU celebrates an artist whose songs carry the weight of an entire nation's longing for freedom.
