Fatmata Episode 1: Sierra Leone

In the first episode of FATMATA, we travel to Freetown, Sierra Leone, to meet the couple at the heart of this story.

Through conversations with her husband, Abu Bakar, her sisters, her mother, and those who knew her best, we begin to get to know the remarkable Fatmata Kamara - or Fatima, as she was known to her family and friends.

Fatmata left a lasting impression on everyone she met, so what led a young woman with so much love around her to leave everything she knew behind?

In this episode, we begin to understand the decisions that would take her thousands of miles from home, on a journey from which she would never return.
