Artist / Content Creator

Sokaina Machkour is a theatre artist and film director holding a Professional Theatre Training Certificate and a Professional Bachelor’s Degree in Cinematographic and Audiovisual Studies. I dedicate my artistic career to exploring the power of visual and dramatic narrative as a tool for the social integration of vulnerable groups. My core passion lies in theatrical and cinematic direction, creating works that reflect profound human challenges within society. I am considered a pioneer in merging art and community engagement, having had the honour of writing and directing the first-ever play for blind people impaired in Morocco, titled "Khalili". This work transcended the limits of a traditional stage performance to become an inclusive human experience, involving blind actors and featuring sign language translation. I documented this journey in my feature-length documentary film, "Al Khashaba Assawda (The Black Stage)".
All these projects were produced by Al Sanaa for Artistic Production, establishing my unique methodology for working with non-traditional ensembles and fostering a bold directorial vision capable of engaging with all segments of society. My experience is further diversified, ranging from leading theatre workshops—where I successfully worked with various groups including children of single mothers, drug addicts, school dropouts, and blind people—to acting, an experience crowned by winning the Best Improvised Performance Actress award in Morocco in 2021. My cinematic achievements include representing Morocco at several international festivals and winning the Best Director Award at the Marrakech International Very Short Film Festival, alongside multiple accolades and honourable mentions for my short film, "JUST ME AND MY MIRROR".
