To make the documentary, director Manuel Dominguez accompanied Mariem Hassan on her travels with a camera, selecting from all of her concerts and recordings. His narrative captures the excitement of each agarit cry of the desert. We see her at the ETNOSOI Festival in Helsinki in 2004, in Les Escales, France, where the concert was transformed into a party with the Tuareg groups that joined the performance, in a theater in Lige singing Do not abandon me, two days before enduring an operation for cancer, and in recordings made in the desert in Saharawi camps.The Director, Manuel Dominguez, founded the Nubenegra record company in Madrid in 1994. Starting with Spanish and Cuban music, the company soon extended its range to new types of music from places such as Equatorial Guinea, Guinea Buissau, Western Sahara, Brazil and the Sudan. In 1998 Nubenegra published Mariem Hassans album Polisario Vencer, first released in 1982. Since then Nubenegra has released several of her albums, starting with Mariem Hassan con Leyoad 2002. As well as directing the documentary Mariem Hassan, la voz del Shara, Manuel Dominguez supplied archival footage of Mariems career and assisted in the production of the TV show Mariem Hassan Voice of the Saharwis. ........
