Samenvatting

How is it possible to fight against Female Genital
Mutilation (FGM) without disrespecting traditional values? This study analyses
‘film’ as a tool for Human Rights
Education in Burkina Faso, especially when it includes thought
structures of the local communities. Here, the innovative approach of ciné débat, a particular
cinematic awareness-raising strategy is applied and analysed. Thus, this
research describes how a documentary film about FGM in Burkina Faso was produced and presented. It is
believed that the critical reconsideration of one’s own thoughts represents a
prerequisite for changing habits. The aim is to find solutions within the
traditional context of the country, not to dictate or instruct behaviour
patterns to the locals.
