The Ocean is an old neighborhood in Rabat on the Atlantic coast. During the day, the Ocean’s children jump into its raging waters, but they are quickly thrown back on the rocks. At night, fishermen lie on those same rocks, taking in the spiritual power of the sea. The immersion in this neighborhood sheds light on its endemic violence.
