The Marrakech Film Festival will recognize four cinema luminaries during its upcoming presentation from November 29 through December 6. Honorees include actress and filmmaker Jodie Foster, Mexican director Guillermo del Toro, Moroccan performer Raouya, and Egyptian multihyphenate Hussein Fahmi.

Foster plans to showcase her latest work, A Private Life, helmed by Rebecca Zlotowski, while del Toro will screen his personal project Frankenstein. The American performer expressed excitement about experiencing the historic Moroccan destination for the first time and celebrating film alongside fellow enthusiasts. Del Toro noted his appreciation for returning to the festival after previous warm receptions and feels particularly moved to share what he considers his most intimate creative endeavor.

Raouya described receiving recognition in her homeland as deeply meaningful, calling her relationship with the festival one built on friendship and loyalty. She treasures memories from past festival experiences in the ochre city. Fahmi, who attended the inaugural festival edition, said returning brings considerable energy. He noted special significance in revisiting Marrakech, where he filmed an early production titled My Blood, My Tears, My Smile. The veteran entertainer called receiving this distinction in the vibrant city a treasured experience.
