In anticipation of the 20th edition of the Marrakech International Film Festival, the Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech Museum is set to embark on another fruitful collaboration. Taking place from November 24 to December 2, this internationally acclaimed cinematic event will witness the YSL Marrakech Museum joining forces with the festival for the third consecutive year.

The announcement of this partnership was conveyed through a press release from the YSL Marrakech Museum, emphasizing the enduring nature of this alliance initiated in 2018. The museum will play an active role in shaping the festival's program by highlighting selected films within the framework of the 11th Continent section.

The 11th Continent section, as defined by the YSL Marrakech Museum, stands out for its bold selection of innovative films that challenge established cinematic conventions. The press release notes that this programming aims to foster a dialogue between contemporary global cinema and classic works that have been at the forefront of Arab or African cinema avant-garde.

As a vibrant cultural hub, the Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech Museum, inaugurated in the fall of 2017 near the Majorelle Garden, extends beyond its role as a guardian of the famous designer's legacy. In addition to its permanent exhibition hall, the museum offers a comprehensive cultural experience with temporary exhibition spaces, a photography gallery, an auditorium, a library, and a bookstore.

This collaboration between the Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech Museum and the Marrakech International Film Festival underscores the ongoing commitment of these institutions to promote artistic and cultural diversity. It provides cinephiles with a unique opportunity to discover innovative films and engage in a creative dialogue between the realms of cinema, fashion, and art. This partnership further solidifies Marrakech's status as a dynamic cultural crossroads, bringing together diverse influences to celebrate art in all its forms.
