摘要 本文讨论了一些最近由摩洛哥和海外艺术家创作的摩洛哥电影，这些电影涉及全球化和文化问题。作者认为，“流通”是过去十年中几部此类电影的共同主题，并提供了一种理解全球化与近期马格里布文化生产之间关系的方法。分析的中心文本是 2005 年的电影《Marock》（由 Laila Marrakchi 执导）以及 2006 年围绕该电影的争议，最清楚地展示了摩洛哥在全球资本和文化流动时代的表现方式的转变。对流通的关注使我们能够将马格里布侨民和马格里布人的文化生产进行对话，而不会消除他们的差异；确定“后殖民”时期后文化生产的新范式；并将这些电影中的元素与其所涉及的物质和地缘政治问题联系起来。
Abstract This article discusses a number of recent Moroccan films—created by artists based both in Morocco and the diaspora—that engage questions of globalisation and culture. The author argues that ‘circulation’ is a common thematic concern in several such films of the past decade and offers a means by which to understand the relationship of globalisation to recent Maghribi cultural production. The central text analysed is the 2005 film Marock (directed by Laila Marrakchi), and the 2006 controversies surrounding it, which most clearly exhibit the shift in Moroccan representations in the age of global capital and cultural flows. Attention to circulation allows us to put in dialogue the cultural production of the Maghribi diaspora and the Maghrib without collapsing their differences; to identify a new paradigm of cultural production that follows the ‘postcolonial’ period; and to link elements within these films to the material and geopolitical concerns they engage.
