This film about two illiterate women who are ordinary but did extraordinary work for their villages. Two women came to India (Tilonia-Rajasthan), learned about solar energy, and went back to Tombouctou(Mali-Africa) with confidence and solar electrified their whole village thus becoming the women heroes not only in their village but also in Mali country.
