Introduction by Mamadou Niang

Mossane (Magou Seck), a beautiful 14-year-old girl from a rural Senegalese village, is the object of affection to many, including Fara, a poor university student—and even her own brother, Ngor. Although she has long been promised as a bride to the wealthy Diogaye, Mossane falls in love with Fara, and on her wedding day, she defies her parents’ wishes and refuses to go through with it.
