SAF Publishing Grant 2020.

Widen the Circle: An Obscure Experimentation in North African Avant-Garde Cinema by Morocco and Brazil-based filmmaker, artist and curator, Ali Essafi traces the colonial history present in North African cinema through three films: Mémoire 14 [Memory 14] (1971), directed by Ahmed Bouanani; Mohammadia (1973), directed by Ahmed Bennys; and Combien je vous aime [How much I love you] (1985), directed by Azzedine Meddour. The essay offers insight into why these works have remained largely overlooked by local and international audiences.
