For Wallah We Can’s Ecolibree project, I filmed a three-hour awareness session for rural women on breast cancer, menstrual hygiene, and cervical cancer. The result is a 10-minute educational video with 2D animations introducing each topic and key statistics. Filming interviews with rural women was challenging due to the taboos, but ultimately rewarding.

To build trust and make the women feel comfortable speaking on camera, I met with them multiple times before the shoot, engaging in informal conversations to break the ice and understand their perspectives. I also worked closely with the sexologist and midwives leading the session to ensure the content was accurate, sensitive, and culturally appropriate. During editing, I crafted a narrative that balanced live footage, testimonies, and animated segments to maintain clarity and engagement. The final video serves as both an awareness tool and a respectful reflection of the voices and experiences of women who are often left out of public health conversations.
