A small village high up in the mountains of Ketama, Northern Morocco. The life of the people here has been shaped by the drug hashish for centuries. Hashish as daily work, hash as exchange currency, hashish as business, hashish as basis and philosophy of a social system, hashish as medium for dreams and hashish as reason for stagnation.

Hashish

Midnight in Marrakech: After Cecile parts ways with her boyfriend, she finds herself alone at the busy nightly Bus Terminal. With nowhere to go, she strays around "Bab Doukkala", an exotic world just outside the Medina, bathed in yellow light. Attracted through the smell of his special cigarette, she luckily gets to know Tarek, the car-park attendant, who introduces her to his universe. We follow them into a little known part of the red city, semi-documentary style.
