In the National Archives of the Kingdom of Morocco, thousands of files await inventory, including those of victims of political violence during the Years of Lead. Among them is Fatna El Bouih, who was disappeared and tortured as a 21-year-old student in the 1970s. Now 67, she continues her fight, pursuing her “dream of change,” active in prisons, advocating for gender equality, and sharing her experience with Syrian survivors of Sednaya prison. Fatna, a Woman Named Rachid follows her activism in Casablanca, in particular at a film festival at Oukacha prison, and blends past and present to portray El Bouih’s journey as a pioneer of women’s engagement and her intimate struggle to exist.
