Morocco

Single women mostly divorced, widows or abandoned by their husbands and therefore repudiated: once they have lost their dignity and recognition by their men they are left to live in precarious conditions on the verge of tolerability. We met some of them, Kadija, Arkia, Labo, Zoara, Boulemane who with a child and who with even 5 children, who live south-east of the dunes of Merzouga without any sustenance if not some humanitarian association. From all over Europe, lovers of motorcycling tours who pass through these areas always take the opportunity to stop for tea and thus to leave a gift as they pass. These women cannot return to their origins, most of Tafroutein, they live in tents poorly in villages that do not protect them or their children from the wind and sand
