Morocco’s Oscar candidate is a joyous celebration of music and the role it plays in empowering a younger generation. Blurring the lines between documentary and fiction, director Nabil Ayouch shot the film with real-life students enrolled in The Positive School of Hip-Hop at the shantytown cultural centre he co-founded. Anas (Anas Basbousi) is the former rapper who establishes the programme, but it is the students who take centre stage as they confront the issues that matter to them and use them to create music and devise dances that make sure their voice is heard.
