THE VERY INTERESTING MOVIE/DOC BY CAMEROONIAN FLORENCE AYISSI!



Sisters in Law



Couples of Scenes in the movie



Haven't had the chance 2 see this movie yet, but I've heard great reviews.
It's been co- directed by a sista from Cameroon , Florence Ayissi and her partner
Kim Longinotto.

En bref this movie shows how our patriarchal system very often unfortunately exuses mistreatment of women and children . But thankfully in this movie, 2 strong minded women have decided as state prosecutor and court president to make sure that the 4 victims presented in this movie get their revenge.


In our rural culture , cases of women beaten, or raped by husbands, cousins, uncles are very frequent and silenced unfortunately..yes supos'we have to wash our dirty laundry in the privacy of our homes, but if we keep doing that, this will keep happening and more women would be victims...so this is 1 great way to open the minds and the ears of people..

So I say congrats to Florence Ayissi.
