“An entrancing look at the culture and music of the Saharawis from the
Western Sahara and Mauritania. This film explores the rich heritage
of a culture that is cloaked in mystery and mired in struggle.
Journey from the northern fringes of the Western Sahara to the
Mauritanian capital of Nouakchott. Explore the intoxicating tapestry
of sight and sound that this obscure region has to offer from some of
its most legendary musicians.”

MUSICAL BROTHERHOODS FROM THE TRANS-SAHARAN HIGHWAY
A Film by Hisham Mayet (60 Minutes)
“This film showcases an assortment of spectacular musical dramas
presented live and unfiltered on the home turf of the world’s most
dynamic string/drum specialists performing and manifesting the
ecstatic truth! Ancient mystical brotherhoods have been flourishing
for centuries in and around the cities of Marrakesh and Essaouira in
Morocco where the trade caravans have gathered from their long
journeys across the Trans-Saharan Highway. This is some of the last
great street music on Earth.”
