Three short films by accomplished women filmmakers explore life in contemporary Africa. In Bridget Pickering's Uno's World, a 25-year-old single mother is forced to face overwhelming responsibilities after falling in love with a man who does not want commitment. In Hang Time, Ngozi Onwhura tells the heart-breaking story of a young, poor, but talented West African basketball player whose desperation to wear the right shoes to impress an American scout ends in tragedy. Zulfah Otto-Sallies' Raya follows a young woman who rebelled against her respectable Muslim upbringing, spent time in jail, and is now determined to turn her back on her past and make a new life for herself.
