Excellent Drama

Magou Seck plays Mossane, a beautiful fourteen year-old girl living in a village where tradition forces girls to obey the will of their parents. She is betrothed to much older man living in France. He has been sending money to Senegal as a dowry and although Mossane has fallen in love with a young man of her village, she has no choice as the village celebrates with a party with gifts from her suitor. This is a simple story but done so well that it transport you into the magic of great filmmaking. I loved this movie.
