Until the middle of the last century, male circumcision was highly regarded as a period of initiation leading to a man\u2019s status. Every year, children were sent to the bush and during their seclusion, cultural codes and knowledge of the community&nbsp; are given to them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Nowadays, this mode of knowledge communication has phased out. Therefore, very often, there are conflicts of generation&nbsp; between&nbsp; the older and younger generations especially those who were born and raised far from thier community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">By following a group of five children during their period of initiation, I show in this film how circumcision is practiced in this community. In spite of social changes and external pressures (urbanisation, modernity, HIV issues, etc), the effort and the will are there to make stable a social order resulting from this practice<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Copyright: 2010 Visual Cultural Studies, University of Troms\u00f8<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uitno.box.com\/s\/dlpmx326a49lueecgd71ows2yrl45dmn\"><strong>Watch Film<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000\">Thesis<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Not available.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Filmmaker:&nbsp; Mohamadou Saliou Year of production: 2010 Location: Cameroon Duration: 52 minutes Sound: mono Language:&nbsp;French English Subtitles The Mboum people have practiced male circumcision for decades.
