Douma Femme* Objet is an experimental smartphone-shot documentary that explores hard work at the intersections of gender, class and age, through a cross-talk with a Ditakh, Bouye and Ginger ice cream seller.
While wandering in the district of Grand Dakar in Senegal, we meat Thérèse who tells us about her work. Between two sentences, she quotes a famous song by Senegalese acclaimed singer, Coumba Gawlo Seck: 'Douma femme objet' (translated into English as 'I am not a woman object'...)
