Womxn : Working
Womxn : Working is a portrait of Nosipho Vidima, a sex work activist and feminist from South Africa as well as her comrades who are engaged in a struggle to decriminalize sex work in their country. Facing discrimination and marginalization due to their chosen profession, these women are taking the fight to change the law to the streets and protesting in the halls of legislation where they lobby. Currently many sex workers are victims of violence, police brutality and rejection by their communities. The decriminalization of their trade will mean an improved status and better access.

If Vagina Had Teeth: The Shona Rainmaking Ceremony in Western Mozambique (2009)
0 /10
"Ritual reversals" or "rituals of rebellion" are concepts used for mock rituals performed in Southern and Eastern Africa. During fertility rituals, like rain ceremonies, women in their songs and dances demonstrate obscene behaviour while they behave like men. These are secret performances open strictly for elderly men and women. Still, we were invited to record the rain making ceremony in the land of Chief Chassuka, Manika Province in Mozambique, in order to document the ritual for the younger generations. These rituals are a fading tradition probably due to the special character of the songs and dances.

Democrats (2014)
7.4 /10
An intriguing look at an authoritarian state on the verge of democratization: how Zimbabwe got a new constitution. Two political enemies are forced on a joint mission to write Zimbabwe's new constitution. The ultimate test that will either take the country a decisive step closer to democracy and away from President Mugabe's dictatorship, or toward renewed repression. In a country with little respect for human rights, impeded by economic sanctions and hyperinflation running rampant, failure is not an option.
