Aramotu

Release Date: 2010-12-20

Overview: Aramotu is a fictitious, myth-like tale that is set in the tradition-bound Yorubaland of 1909. It spins the story of Aramotu, a wealthy female trader, who dares to stretch the boundaries that ancient myths and traditions place on the life of the women of her time. Aramotu tries to employ the social-engineering aspects of the Gelede Cult to realize her progressive ideas about the rights of women and the need for people-oriented governance in her native Agesi Village.
