Cinema

Whether it’s historical films or contemporary actions, the plans are flexible enough to suit any era and situation. This flexibility is a boon for directors, sparing them the need for extensive location scouting and allowing them to authentically bring their screenplay ideas to life.

Located just five hours away from America and a mere few hours from Europe, Ouarzazate boasts exceptional natural assets that appeal to filmmakers. In recent years, some of the world’s largest film studios have begun to shift away from conventional destinations, such as locations in Latin America, where exorbitant compensation demands prevail. Similarly, the appeal of Tunisia and Egypt has been challenged by Morocco, emerging as a formidable competitor on the filmmaking industry.

Foreign film production in Ouarzazate is not a recent phenomenon. Dating back to the First World War, this region has attracted legendary directors such as Alfred Hitchcock and David Lean, who chose to set up their cameras here.

The region holds a prominent position as a national leader in the field of cinema, serving a pioneering status for hosting film productions in Africa. With one of the most effective ecosystems in the African film sector, this appeal, centered largely in Ouarzazate, owes its strength to a series of valuable assets:

  • Cost-Effective and Incentive-Rich Environment
  • Diverse Landscapes and Abundant Sunshine
  • Cutting-Edge Facilities
  • Excellent Reception Infrastructure
  • Skilled Workforce
  • Global Recognition as a Film Hub
  • Dominant National Presence
  • High-Profile Productions

This vibrant film sector supports a workforce of more than 90,000 individuals and stands as a pivotal driver of potential investment. Its positive impact reverberates across diverse sectors, including tourism, craftsmanship, trade, and services.
