Faux Départ plot

Documentary that takes a look at Morocco's extensive fossil industry. This homage to the "preparers" in the arid region between the Atlas Mountains and the Sahara, whose manly labor fuels a thriving trade in real, counterfeit and hybrid artifacts, is also a reprimand to the fetishistic hunger for foreign objects, a cunning reflection on authenticity and a hymn to creativity.
