Depuis toujours, au Maroc, les berbères du sud pratiquent l'art de construire, selon des techniques ancestrales, un type d'habitat original et millénaire : les ksour et les kasbahs. Mais, laissées à l'abandon, ces majestueuses forteresses de terre rouge ou ocre, sont menacées par les intempéries et tombent en ruine, au risque de disparaître à jamais du paysage marocain et du patrimoine mondial.
