I Am Black, I Am Beautiful

Twelve Afro-French women talk about their relationship with hair, beauty standards, men, and representation in the media. Their journey of doubts, growth, alienation, reconciliation, resilience, and self-acceptance raises awareness about social and cultural issues in both African and Western societies. By publicly sharing their experiences, the documentary creates space for these women to speak, be seen, and be heard, while fostering an honest dialogue both within and beyond the Black community.
