Before the Dying of the Light, is a 2020 Moroccan movie, directed by Ali Essafi. with a runtime of 68 minutes.
Before the Dying of the Light is a Moroccan documentary that journeys back to the 1970s through a vibrant collage of jazz music, vintage posters, magazine covers, archival footage, and animation. The film examines a dark chapter in Moroccan history through the eyes of artists who lived under King Hassan II's repressive rule, many of whom were imprisoned or disappeared without trace. By blending aesthetic nostalgia with political testimony, the film reconstructs an era of cultural suppression and pays tribute to the artists whose voices were silenced during one of the country's most turbulent decades.
