Mawazine, Rythmes du Monde, is one of the largest music festivals in the world, held annually in Rabat. This coverage is from the 2017 edition, the festival’s 16th year, whose closing night brought together British rock singer Rod Stewart, Ivorian reggae artist Alpha Blondy, Syrian singer Georges Wassouf and Lebanese artist Jahida Wehbe on the same bill, reflecting the festival’s musical range. The coverage was built around that scale: wide shots of stage lighting rigs and the crowd during headline sets, balanced against quieter portraits of musicians shot between performances, away from the main stage energy.
