Les Ateliers de l'Atlas is a programme aimed at revealing new talents in the Moroccan film industry, providing support for Moroccan, Arab and African filmmakers. It has enabled 111 projects and films to be made since 2017, 48 of which are Moroccan. For example, four films selected for the 2023 Cannes Festival have benefited from the support of the Ateliers de l'Atlas: "The mother of all lies" by Asmae El Moudir (Un Certain regard - best direction, best documentary), "The Pack" by Kamal Lazraq (Un certain regard - Mention of the Jury), "Inshallah a boy" by Amjad Al Rasheed (Semaine de la critique) and "Deserts" by Faouzi Bensaïdi (Quinzaine des cinéastes).
