screening schedule

Six films were edited into a single 44-minute film for broadcast on the BBC-a thought-provoking look at the role women in various countries are playing in order to solve the twin problems of population and development.

The stories include: women in India who are demanding the basic services they need for a dignified life; women in Uganda who are calling for a halt to the barbaric practice of female genital mutilation; a second wife working endless jobs in Kenya to afford school and hope for her children; teenage pregancy and machismo in Peru; industrial employment in Indonesia; and the status of women on postwar Cambodia.
