Finzan / A Dance for Heroes

In this interlocking story of two women—Manyuma, who refuses to marry her brother-in-law per tradition, and Fili, who takes a stand against female genital mutilation—rebel against the rigid definitions of womanhood in their rural Malian village. This drama makes a sustinct plea that freeing Malian women from patriarchal oppression is essential for the wellbeing of all.
