Do Not Touch Me

In this series, presenter Annemie Struyf goes on a voyage of discovery along worlds, places and rituals we never got to see this way. In Kenya Annemie discovers that very young girls undergo genital mutilation on a large scale. In remote places, every day she sees hundreds of girls patiently standing in line, silent and scared or intense and ignorant of their unavoidable fate. In ordinary homes, in the early morning or late in the evening, she sees the circumciser slip into the house to do her grisly work. However, this practice has already been illegal in Kenya for ten years. Officially, female circumcision is a thing of the past in Kenya. Via Annemie is a series with touching and moving stories, balancing on the edge of life, love and hope.
