Sinopsis: Oualata, a red city on the far edge of the Sahara desert. In this haven, a frail rampart against the sand, three women practise traditional painting and decorate the walls of the city. In a society apparently dominated by tradition, religion and men, these women freely express themselves, commenting freely on the relationship between men and women.
 
Bio: Katy Ndiaye has made one previous film, Trace, empreintes de femmes (2003), which was well received at international film festivals.
