Dakhla: Cinema and Oblivion

Life is going on in Dakhla, one of the Sahrawi refugee camps in southern Algeria, forgotten for 45 years. Since they cannot go to the cinema, the cinema reaches them: the celebration of a film festival, the Fisahara, breaks the monotony. With it come foreigners, politicians, artists, journalists… The event ends, life (and oblivion) continues. As it has been for 45 years.
