Director Biography

Randa Maroufi, born in 1987 in Casablanca, Morocco, a Fine Arts graduate at Tetouan (Morocco), Angers (France) and Le Fresnoy (France). Randa Maroufi belongs to this generation that grew up in an era dominated by images. She collects them with as much eagerness as suspicion, and ceaselessly questions their veracity. She prefers to put her ambiguous fictions in the service of reality, and the field of her experimentation encompasses the occupation of public space and gender issues, of which she highlights the founding mechanisms.
