Work
In 1994 Anne-Laure Folly won the silver medal at the Monte Carlo Television Festival for her documentary Femmes aux yeux ouverts (Women with eyes open). This film records women from Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Senegal discussing their lives.Шаблон:Sfn The opening sequence of this film, her second, has a young woman staring into the camera and reciting the poem: Шаблон:Blockquote The poem is by Monique Ilboudo of Burkina Faso, one of the women portrayed in the documentary.Шаблон:Sfn The film lets different women from Mali, Senegal, Burkina Faso and Benin talk about how they deal with the issues they are facing. Seven sections cover the subjects of clitoridectomy, forced marriage, HIV/AIDS, struggle, survival, economics and politics. It shows the paradox in which women have great responsibility for the survival and welfare of their families, but are given little voice in major decisions.Шаблон:Sfn
Folly's 1996 Les Oubliées (The forgotten women) is a documentary about Angola. After ten years of struggle for independence, the war in Angola had continued for another twenty years. The film explores the motives of the combatants, which were linked to the cold war, Cuban intervention and the racist South African regime.Шаблон:Sfn In this film, Folly again lets women tell their own stories. She shows the women from mid- or close-range, forcing the viewer to focus on their faces rather than their bodies or surroundings, and takes the time to let them say what they have to say, giving a unique women's perspective of the conflict.Шаблон:Sfn Folly participates in the film through her voice-over, giving a subjective element. She admits that she is not familiar with Angola, and certainly is not an authority.Шаблон:Sfn
Her film Sarah Maldoror ou la nostalgie de l'utopie (1998) is a tribute to Sarah Maldoror, who made the classic film Sambizanga (1972).Шаблон:Sfn
