Anne-Laure Folly
Anne-Laure Folly (born March 31, 1954) is a documentary film maker from Togo. Work In 1994 Anne-Laure Folly won the silver medal at the Monte Carlo Television Festival for her documentary '' Femmes aux yeux ouverts'' (Women with eyes open).

It shows the paradox in which women have great responsibility for the survival and welfare of their families, but are given little voice in major decisions. Folly's 1996 '' Les Oubliées'' (The fo ...
