The government-backed project will see more than 100 screens adorned with Christie projection at cultural centers across the country, on behalf of the Moroccan Ministry of Culture and Communications. A second project will also see more than 100 Christie projectors installed at Cinerji, a new exhibitor, in sites across Morocco.
