A filmmaker described the plot and personal inspiration behind her film, which follows two young single women in Mali: one who becomes pregnant and faces pressure from her parents to marry a man chosen by her father, and another who works independently and says she has been harassed by neighborhood men who insist she marry because her peers have done so. The speaker said those stories, along with accounts from other young women, motivated her to write and produce the film.
She said the film "touche énormément beaucoup de jeunes filles" in Mali and expressed hope it would be seen in North America. The speaker also said she previously made a documentary tribute to her father in 2023; she added that he died on Feb. 19, 2025, and credited him with introducing her to cinema and inspiring her persistence. "C'est à travers lui que je suis rentré dans le cinéma par rapport à sa détermination, à son courage et à son combat," she said.
The remarks appeared to be a filmmaker's statement about the themes and personal background informing her work rather than a policy discussion or government action. The transcript did not include references to any formal agenda items, votes, statutes, or public-policy decisions.
