Desert Flower


Ethiopian Supermodel, Liya Kebede, can be seen in the film Desert Flower. The film was adapted from the book, and is the autobiography of Waris Dirie, a Somolian nomad turned supermodel, turned social reformist against female genital mutiliation- a common practice and problem in Africa's Somolia.



The film also stars Happy-Go-Lucky's Sally Hawkins. It hasn't been released in the States yet, but is set to come in the near future.
