This memory and history event was attended by Morocco's Consul General in Liege, Abdelkader Abidine, together with the documentary filmmaker, the president of the Luxembourg-Morocco circle, Amal Choury.

It was also marked by the presence of representatives from the Foundation of Luxembourg Judaism, members of the Moroccan community, including Jews established in Luxembourg, as well as socio-cultural and economic local stakeholders.

Speaking on this occasion, the Consul General stressed the importance of this meeting which contributes to a better knowledge of Morocco's cultural diversity, its secular tolerance and its openness to other civilizations.

He emphasized the Jewish dimension, which is one of the essential components of the Moroccan identity, evoking a large number of testimonies on the exemplary and secular cohabitation between Jews and Muslims in Morocco.

He recalled, in this context, that HM King Mohammed VI attaches great importance to issues related to interfaith dialogue, the dialogue between civilizations and cultures and the enhancement of cultural heritage and worship of the Moroccan Jewish community.

The Royal initiatives are illustrated, in particular, by programs of heritage renovation and safeguarding of Jewish places of worship, including Essaouira's Slat Attia Synagogue; a memorial house on the life of the Jewish community, the restoration of Bayt Dakira, in the old medina of Essaouira, and Fez's Slat El Fassyine Synagogue; a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

These initiatives are also illustrated by the rehabilitation of Jewish cemeteries in Morocco, and the construction of a Museum of Jewish Culture in Fez, a unique initiative in the Arab-Muslim world.

The documentary film tells the story of two Israelis of Moroccan origin who return to Morocco in search of their parents and grandparents born in the Kingdom.

After the screening of the film, Hachkar answered many questions from the audience about the conditions of filming, the model that Morocco represents in terms of tolerance, openness and intercultural dialogue and the links that the younger generations hold with their country of origin.
