The film deals with the conflicting opinions about the global problem of ritual female genital mutilation. Through interviews with African immigrants to Spain, the film encourages a wideranging discussion about different attitudes to this issue: on the one hand there are opinions that rely on the principle of the protection of human rights, while on the other they are discursivelyopposed by the principle of the preservation of cultural heritage.
