International organizations film "The Odyssey" in Laayoune, occupied, as an attempt to erase Moroccan occupation
The article discusses the criticism directed at using the occupied city of Dakhla in Western Sahara as a filming location for Christopher Nolan's movie "Odessey," amid calls to boycott the project. Opponents argue that this contributes to normalizing the Moroccan occupation of the region, distorts the collective memory of the Sahrawi people, and undermines their rights, especially given the disregard for the legal status of the territory and the violations faced by Sahrawi civilians over the decades. They also view the cinematic exploitation of the city as a reflection of complicity in covering up colonial crimes and ongoing repression.
