Description
"Patience, my girls! Munyal! This is the only value of marriage and life". In the north of Cameroon, within the rich Peul and Muslim families, patience is the cardinal virtue taught to future wives. Woe to the one who dares to contradict the will of Allah! Within the walls of the concessions, where polygamous rivalry and marital violence reign, Cameroonian society condemns these women to silence. But it is also there that their destinies intertwine. Ramla, torn away from her first love; Safira, confronted with the arrival of a second wife; Hindou, forcibly married to her cousin: each one dreams of freeing herself from her condition. How far will they go to free themselves?"
