On a bus en route from Dakar, Senegal, to Lagos, Nigeria, four resourceful women must band together as they navigate the risks that come with traveling alone while female, fighting back against threats of violence, sexual harassment, and government corruption at each border crossing. This slice-of-life drama from Burkinabe director Apolline Traoré pays tribute to the bravery of West African women asserting their independence in a patriarchal society.
