Biography[edit]

Malca was born in Paris, France. He grew up in Casablanca, Morocco.[1] In an interview with Huffington Post Maroc, Malca explained his interest in Casablanca, describing it as "a schizophrenic, young, miscegenated city, where different elements—such as vestiges of the French Colonial Empire, ghosts of an American dream dominated by ultra-capitalism, and massive, somewhat vulgar structures borrowing from the Middle East—are married." He also described himself as "a young man obsessed with East-West dialogue."[2]
