Overview

Kutchinga is a feature-length documentary that addresses the ritual of widows who are forced to have sex with a relative or someone hired in order to purify themselves and be able to return to normal life. Filmed in two suburban neighborhoods of the city of Inhambane, the feature film was constructed from personal accounts of four women and two men who participated in the kutchinga ceremony.
