Randa Maroufi
Randa Maroufi’s Bab Sebta , is named after a Spanish enclave in Morocco, Ceuta. The film is a portrait of the ‘doorway to Europe’, a place where a murky economy of semi legal exchanges take place across a border anomaly. The border is represented by painted lines across the tarmac, as innocent as playground markings but with far greater consequences.
