Marrakech - 5:30 AM


It's still dark. I'm inside a small metal wagon pulled by a motorcycle. Like the one in Fellini’s La Strada. Every bump feels like an earthquake.
I’m with two Gnawa on our way to the animal market to buy a black goat and three roosters.

Tomorrow at noon there will be a sacrifice and then a Lila, the sacred ceremony of the Gnawa.
