“Tangier, the frontier city par excellence. First of all geographically: a crossroads and a border between north and south, east and west, Europe and Africa, the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. But above all metaphorically, symbolically: a border between reality and fiction. A myth-city, a theatre-city, a cinema-city. But also a trick-city, a counterfeit-city.” — Jean-Christophe Bailly
