For Ama: A Namibian Storytelling Series

  • “For Ama” is a Namibian storytelling series that explores the topic of healing through different women’s life stories.

  • Each woman was asked the same 2 questions: What is a pivotal moment that changed the course of your life? And, what is something that you’ve had to heal from/are healing from and how are you doing it?

  • The result was the series "(For) Ama”, meaning "(For) Truth” in Khoekhoegowab. Every episode is a different woman's life story, explained through her words.

  • Each story is different. The women range from elders to youth. But all have something in common, they're all true.
