Memories and Dreams

The filmmaker returns to the Maasai village in Kenya that has been the subject
of most of her life's film work. Intercut with scenes from her earlier films
produced over 20 years, this film explores the changes the Maasai have been
forced to make. Her focus is again on the women of this pastoral village as they
discuss their socially and politically inferior status in relation to myth and the
practicalities of everyday life. Her women friends’ stories are woven into a
lyrical, moving, complex and personal film on the nature of memory and of
dreams.
