NO PROBLEM! SIX MONTHS WITH BAREFOOT GRANDMAMAS
directed by Yasmin Kidwai
(India.)
It’s a rare depiction of successful South-to-South cooperation. This exceptional documentary shows us that wherever there is hope, understanding, commitment and humanity; solutions can be designed, implemented and made to benefit the vulnerable. NO PROBLEM! SIX MONTHS WITH BAREFOOT GRANDMAMAS is a skilful documentary by a visibly confident and compassionate female director on women who go from being considered ‘illiterate’ to being called ‘engineers’ and repositioning themselves in their communities.
