We had to celebrate this return with great fanfare.
Very impacted by the Covid-19 health crisis, the Marrakech International Film Festival has indeed been absent from the cinema scene for the past two years.
Thus, from November 11 until November 19, it is celebrating this 19th edition with more enthusiasm than ever.
For the occasion, many celebrities have decided to mark the occasion, parading since the start of the festivities on an illuminated red carpet.

Among them, Isabelle Huppert, who made a remarkable appearance, dressed in an outfit straight out of the movie
Matrix
.
Marina Foïs presented herself in an outfit all in sequins, Marion Cotillard in a dungarees dress, Leïla Bekhti in a Camel leather coat.
Among the members of the jury - chaired by Paolo Sorrentino and composed (among others) of Tahar Rahim and Vanessa Kirby -, Diane Kruger also stood out, appearing through two sparkling looks.
On the first evening of the festival, Norman Reedus' companion had bet for a black velvet dress hemmed with crystals falling along the legs and down to the feet for a sensational effect.
James Gray in the spotlight
American filmmaker James Gray, who is currently presenting his new film
Armageddon Time
, is honored at this 19th edition.
The Festival also paid tribute to Bollywood star Ranveer Singh, and is preparing to do so for British actress Tilda Swinton.
