Abstract
The ubiquity of consumption films was conspicuously conducive to a consumerist society that deals with cinema only for amusement. This thought piece article sheds light on cinema as a two-fold art that can be both trivial and edifying at the same time. This paper, therefore, agitates all stakeholders in the realm of cinema in Morocco to help develop a constructive cinematic culture in Morocco through the inclusion of film studies in the Moroccan educational curricula. Cinema, without a doubt, can affect individuals both positively and negatively, and hence, being aware of how to select films and why has become a mandatory datum to cultivate the minds of film consumers in Morocco. As such, the reader of this article is supposed to find out why the formal learning of intellectual cinema from an early age is a fruitful decision.
Keywords: online learning, educational films, film consumption, documentaries.
