Zafraan Caravan #4: Radio Diaries from Southeast Morocco

This episode of Zafraan Caravan is focused on the desertic region south east of Morocco. After Marrakech, Ouerzazade and Zagora, up until the end of the road to the desert outpost and once a florid oasis, M’hamid. Here Taragalte Festival takes place once a year in November as a meeting point for musical and cultural scenes from the desert. We have attended the festival, spoken to people we encountered on our way, listened to their stories, listened to some of the sounds this landscape has to offer and listened to the music. Here’s a window into that journey.
