Sisterhood Filming Locations

Twin sisters Husinatu and Hassanatu decide to migrate together from their homeland, Sierra Leone, to the Middle East in search of better futures for themselves, their children and their parents. Despite the frustrating former experiences with Husinatu in the Middle East, they are now both determined to achieve their goal. Facing the coronavirus crisis, they search for money in order to obtain new passports, visas and travel arrangements through legal and illegal migration agents. The decision to migrate creates a conflict with their parents. The father has always been supportive, but the mother, who wants them to get married and build a life in their own country, tries to stop them. But the twins don't want a man controlling them and seek independence as they are convinced that a better life is not in their home country. This is a film about family relations, the search for independence, and a better future in opposition to family traditions.
