Abstract

Oualata, the red town on the far edge of the Sahara desert. In this haven, frail rampart against the sand, three women practice traditional painting, and decorate the walls of the town. In a society apparently dominated by tradition, religion and men, these women unreservedly express themselves and comment freely on the relationship between men and women.
