Igboland is an ethnic region located in the east of Nigeria, the home of the Igbo people. In Igboland, women sometimes have the short end of the stick. They are often excluded when some traditional decisions are being made, and sometimes neglected or abused by those that are supposed to love and protect them. Why? Because they are born female or worse, with a disability. Hence, it was Igbo tradition for women not to have inheritance rights of their fathers' property. Until now.Emily is a young girl who is abused and harassed by her stepmother. Chika is a sad woman, with plans of her own and her biological son for the family she married into. If only she can get Emily out of the way. Follow this young girl's journey from her painful childhood to her Supreme Court triumph for Igbo women everywhere.Ngozi is a wonderful, hardworking mother of twin girls. This is a problem as far as her husband is concerned. Preference for boys over girls leads to many problems in Igboland. Find out what happens when this preference is taken to the extreme.Kosi and Giselle are sisters who are very different from each other. Favoritism tends to bring the worse out of parents. The choices the adults in this family make will set these sisters on their own paths in life. They will make decisions that will mark them for the rest of their lives. Which of these two sisters will cry tears of sorrow and which one tears of joy?
