Memory 14, is a 1971 Moroccan movie, directed by Ahmed Bouanani. with a runtime of 24 minutes.
Thakirah Arba'at 'Ashar (Memory 14) is a landmark 1971 Moroccan experimental film by pioneering director Ahmed Bouanani, constructed entirely from archival film footage. Originally running to two hours and eighteen minutes, the work was brutally truncated by censors to a mere twenty-four minutes — a suppression that became as much a part of the film's story as its content. Bouanani's debut feature stands as a testament to both his innovative vision and the repressive cultural climate of the era, using found footage to interrogate collective memory and the politics of the image in a way that remained radical long after its making.
