Le Thй ou l'йlectricitйJerôme le Maire

Ameskar Foqani is an isolated village in the Moroccan Atlas mountains where time seems to have come to a halt. There is no mail delivery, no telephone, no running water and no electricity. Its 300 inhabitants live according to their ancestors’ traditions. But one day, modernity comes knocking: the village will be connected to the electricity grid. The villagers are less than impressed with this ‘novelty’ and would rather see a decent road built. Filmed over a three-year period, this charming and disarming film shows a small community hesitatingly enter the 21st century.
