The crappy camera-phone documentarian strikes again! This wedding celebration happened to be kicking off right in our neighborhood, within about 50 meters of our house, earlier this afternoon -- and I was so fascinated that I had to capture the experience on video.

The drums and horns are fascinating enough, but when when the woman (Is it the bride?  Or maybe the mother of the groom?) tips back her head, covers her face with her hand, and let's out a loud thrilling cry, it seems like a fictional experience.

In our neighborhood, there are a lot of Berber Muslims, originally from the mountains of Morocco -- settled in Amsterdam over the past two or three generations.  Most of the time, they're pretty quiet, unassuming citizens.  But when it comes time to celebrate a wedding, they do it in style!
