It’s not every day I find myself two-stepping in the exact spot where Russell Crowe was attacked by a tiger in The Gladiator – but here I am, doing exactly that at Oasis: Into the Wild, an electronic music festival set inside the world’s largest film studios located within the so-called door to the desert: Ouarzazate, Morocco.
A four-hour drive south from Marrakech, Ouarzazate is a balmy city with pink-hued brick buildings and orange skies. Think of any ancient Egyptian epic you’ve seen, like say, The Mummy or Lawrence of Arabia, and chances are it was filmed here at Atlas Studios.
