Unite for Bissau (Nô Kumpu Guiné): Agroecology and Feminism in Guinea Bissau (2023)

Directed by Iara Lee

Documentary · 40m

In the West African nation of Guinea-Bissau, we follow brave local women who challenge patriarchy by building institutions that promote self- sufficiency through agroecology. They also defy social norms by standing up against female genital mutilation and rejecting forced marriage. Carrying forward the legacy of Amílcar Cabral, the Bissau-Guinean independence leader who placed women’s rights at the center of the struggle for liberation, the women of a rising generation are taking their power back.
