I wanted to show that they participate fully in the questions that concern all women.{{sfn|Thackway|2003|p=191}}}}DescriptionThis film records women from Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Senegal discussing their lives.{{sfn|Anne Laure Folly - WMM}} The opening sequence of this film, Folly's second, has a young woman staring into the camera and reciting the poem: {{blockquote|A good woman should not know how to read, A good woman's eyes should not be open.{{sfn|Thackway|2003|p=156}} The poem is recited by Monique Ilboudo of Burkina Faso, one of the women portrayed in the documentary.{{sfn|Curry|2004|p=86}} The film lets different women from Mali, Senegal, Burkina Faso and Benin talk about how they deal with the issues they are facing. Seven sections cover the subjects of clitoridectomy, forced marriage, HIV/AIDS, struggle, survival, economics and politics.
