This Friday, December 1st, the IFI will host a very special screening of Jaha’s Promise, followed by a Q&A with the documentary’s director Patrick Farrelly and cinematographer Kate McCullough. Winner of the Audience Award at the 2017 IFI Documentary Festival, the documentary has received wide acclaim.
Jaha Dukureh is a young woman who returns home from the US to the Gambia to lead a campaign against female genital mutilation (FGM), the brutal procedure that she suffered as a baby and which almost destroyed her life. Jaha doesn’t seek sympathy: she demands respect for the rights of girls and women no matter what society they live in.
This film is the story of her relentless struggle and the stunning victory that brought radical change to her society.
