I love that the raw grittiness of this film augments the narrative. This powerful, woman-centered drama, like Sembène's Moolaadé, is a significant addition to the catalog of must-see African films. This is one that documents the strong, existential sisterhood bond of African women. This bond persists in the face of, maybe even because of, the religiously justified violence on women.
On the outskirts of the capital of Chad, determined single mother Amina works tirelessly to provide for herself and her 15-year old daughter Maria. When Amina discovers Maria is pregnant and does not want a child, the two women begin to seek out an abortion, condemned by both religion and law. In the process, mother and daughter forge a connection stronger than any they’ve ever known.
