By Idrissa Ouédraogo, Burkina Faso, based on an original idea by Olga Ouédraogo, aged 20, from Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso Adama wants to make love to Kady. She insists
on a condom so he goes to the shop to buy some. But he hadn't realised
how embarrassed he would feel buying condoms in front of other people…
Topics
for discussion Key topics for discussion: Discussion topic 1: IN THE FILM: Can you relate to Adama's embarrassment in the shop? What is it that helps Adama to finally overcome his embarrassment and to buy condoms? IN REAL LIFE: If certain people are too shy to
go buy condoms themselves, what can they do to make sure that they have
condoms on hand when they need them? Discussion topic 2: IN THE FILM: What is Adama's reaction when Kady tells him to go get condoms? Does his reaction surprise you? IN REAL LIFE: In our society, what kind of challenges
might a woman face if she insists on using a condom with her partner?
What kind of arguments could she present to support her case? Discussion topic 3: IN THE FILM: What lessons do you think Adama might learn from this episode? IN REAL LIFE: Do you know where to find condoms in your area? If you were to buy condoms, where exactly would you keep them before using them? (Ideally, the facilitator will already have identified local places where quality condoms can be found. It would be extra helpful if he or she could also tell people exactly how much condoms cost at each of those places.) How should you store condoms before you use them?
Discussion topic 4: IN THE FILM: What do you suppose motivated the elderly man to buy condoms for his fourth wife? IN REAL LIFE: What might happen if HIV
were to make its way into a polygamous relationship -- or into any situation
in which a person has multiple partners simultaneously? |
