Краткое содержание
Barry Gordon, the older son of a Virginia colonel, inherits a taste for alcohol--a habit that caused his father's death. His brother, Tom, falls in love with Muriel Beekman, their guardian's daughter. Barry also loves her but feels rejected. Three years later, after extended travels, Barry learns that Tom, having been sent to Morocco by Mr. Beekman, has been captured by desert marauders and is being held for ransom. He begins a search for him and in Tangiers encounters the Beekmans and Kitty Van Ness. Barry and Muriel discover their love for each other, but he refuses to commit himself while Tom is still alive.
Чтобы остановить двойного агента, продажного сотрудника КГБ, бывшего генерала советских войск, снабжающего оружием террориста и наркобарона в Афганистане, агент 007 будет следовать за ним и побывает в скалах Гибралтара, в Чехословацком концертном зале, в Танжере и даже в той части Афганистана, где вовсю идут бои.
Kamel Raoui, a young police inspector in Tanger, investigates the murder of drug-dealer Hakim Tahiri. The victim's mistress Touria, just living for her fatally-ill younger brother Pipo, is considered the main suspect, so Kamel learns more and more about their hard life circumstances. During the observation, the sexually-confused Kamel falls in love with the young woman, but realizes the imminence for Touria and Pipo too late.
Адам — талантливый андерграундный музыкант, живет в мрачном Детройте, одевается в стиле 60-х и не выходит днем из дома. Он не в восторге от того, куда катится мир, и подумывает о способах самоубийства. В теплом Танжере живет его загадочная подружка Ева, которая стильно одевается, обожает поэзию и по вечерам ужинает с Кристофером Марло. Адаму и Еве — более тысячи лет. Пару веков назад они договорились не убивать ради свежей крови людей, а добывать ее в больницах. Не так давно они решили пожить раздельно, но хватило их ненадолго, и вот уже Ева выходит из самолета в Детройте. Они оба чувствуют, что должно произойти что-то опасное. Вскоре в город приезжает младшая сестра Евы — необузданная безбашенная вампирша, не способная контролировать эмоции. В городе начинаются странные смерти, Адам и Ева вынуждены бежать в Алжир, но череда неприятностей, кажется, только начинается: похоже, конец света все-таки настает и смерть уже не за горами… Смерть? Не рановато ли?..
Set between a numbing, malodorous factory and the demi-monde of nocturnal Tangier, two street-smart young women work tirelessly to move on with their lives. By day the fast-talking, live-wire Badia and her quiet friend Imane peel shrimp in a factory; by night, they hit the seaside hotels, turn tricks and steal small objects from their clients to pawn. One night they meet two pretty girls their own age who work in the Free Zone of Tangier, a heavily guarded, European-style industrial area. The determined Badia hates peeling shrimps and sees the two new girlfriends, who are slightly better off, as a springboard.

A collaboration between Jem Cohen with writer Luc Sante made in Tangier, Morocco, a city where neither of us had ever been. En route from the airport to the city center, we found ourselves amazed by the landscape outside of the car windows; a massive construction project under way in all directions. While not in itself unusual, we were by struck dumb by the epic scale and seemingly incomprehensible plan of the development and were drawn to return together to this puzzling zone. This project was commissioned by TAMAAS, a small foundation based in Paris, as part of their Tangier project, The 8.
In August 1996, bus drivers Marcel Van Loock and Wim Moreels are apprehended by the Moroccan Customs for drug trafficking. Inside their bus, hidden behind a false compartment, they have discovered 700 pounds of hashish. Although the owner of the bus company is arrested as well and makes a full confession clearly indicating that both drivers were unaware of the hidden drugs, the Moroccan judge sentences both men to 5 years in the Moroccan prison of Tangiers. Nothing could have prepared the two men for life inside a Moroccan prison. Without food, clothes or medical care, they must learn how to take care of themselves to survive their stay in prison. Corrupt guards, corrupt lawyers and judges, a consul who doesn't care and frequent beatings are only part of the terrible prison. Meanwhile their families at home are left without any information, any help or any hope - finding out that their own government doesn't care for Belgian people in prisons abroad.

Set in the mid-1950s when Tangier was still an international zone, El Chergui presents the city on the eve of its independence, as Aïcha resorts to magical practices to try to prevent her husband from taking a second wife. Around her, a society of women creates its own form of active resistance even as the larger independence movement grows around it. Through his unique use of montage, Smihi creates arresting images that present a society torn by the contradictions of colonialism, religion, patriarchy, and resistance. (Block Cinema)
