Senegalese blog SEMEtt (the Black Spark) reports that there are no black African films being presented at the 5th Marrakech (Morocco) Film Festival. In fact there is only one African film “El Ayel ” (the kid of Tangier) of the Morrocan Moumen Smihi.” He accuses the festival organisers of being trying to immitate the Cannes Film Festival.
