Ouaga Girls
A group of young women tinker with machines and hammer away in a car mechanics school in Ouagadougou. OUAGA GIRLS is a poetic story about life choices, sisterhood, and the search for one’s own path.
Jobs are a major issue in Burkina Faso. The young women at a mechanics school in the country’s capital, Ouagadougou, find themselves at a निर्णsive stage of their lives, where their dreams, hopes, and courage collide with opinions, fears, and societal expectations of what a woman should be. Using engaging narrative techniques, Theresa Traore Dahlberg portrays their final years at school while also capturing the challenging past and present of the country.
OUAGA GIRLS is her multi-award-winning feature debut—a coming-of-age film full of warmth, humor, heartbreak, and depth.
