"The painful past of a child marriage activist intertwines with the uncertain future of a soon-to-be child bride as they both attempt to fight against child marriage."
Overview
24-year-old child marriage activist, Sali, is on a mission to end the harmful practice of child marriage. She seems to be the only person able to help the 14-year-old, soon-to-be child bride, Adi, living in a rural West African village. The tale of Adi's uncertain future and Sali's painful past shows the devastating impact child marriage can have over multiple generations as well as the bravery it takes to speak out against it.
