Film against Forced Marriage
"Furu (Marriage)" is the story of two single girls; one is forced into marriage by her parents after she becomes pregnant by her boyfriend, who has no money to marry her; the other is harassed by the village youth because she is not yet married. Fatou Cissé is a Malian director and daughter of the renowned filmmaker Souleymane Cissé, who passed away in February 2025. She talks about her inspiration for making this film. This video was produced in partnership with Film at Lincoln Center (https://www.filmlinc.org/) and the New York African Film Festival (https://africanfilmny.org/).
