This film, The Crossing, was produced by local Tostan staff and community members following a participant-led filmmaking training by the NGO Venice Arts, supported by the Sundance Institute, the Skoll Foundation, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida).
The Crossing takes place in the Mandinka village of Karcia, Senegal. This film addresses a common source of conflict between families and ethnic groups in West Africa -- inter-ethnic marriage -- and shows how conflict can be resolved through positive communication.
This film is one of three stories from the field. Watch the other two films:
