Casanegra

In an underground Casablanca, labyrinthine, continental and extremely cinematic, Karim and Adil are two friends who do their best to get cash and stay out of trouble. They succeed in this in varying degrees, but life as petty criminals nevertheless appears as one of few available forms of existence in a society still marked by its heritage from feudal society. There are many nuances, however, and subtle criticism is directed at both class distinctions and materialism. It is provoking, not least when the dream of a gilded future is symbolised by a postcard from Malmö. mm
