Men of the Oasis is a short film by Georges Régnier, shot in Morocco and presented in competition at the Cannes Film Festival in 1951. From birth to death, the life of the oasis dweller is linked to that of the date palm, which he must plant, care for, and ensure is pollinated. Filmed in the Goulmina oasis, on the edge of the Tafillet region, this film tells the simple story of the life of Saïd, son of Ahmed.
