Meun-Meunu Jigeen: All that a woman can do
A short documentary about women artists working and thriving in Dakar, Senegal. Anta Germaine Gaye is an internationally recognized painter who discusses her breakthough career, which she pursued alongside familial and societal obligations. Three other women artists also discuss how they balance life and art, as well as their relationship with religion and feminism. Through their experiences and insights, these women open the door for the West to deepen its understanding of women, family, and career in Africa.
