David and Judith MacDougall are exploring the marriage rituals and roles of Turkana women in this ethnographic documentary. The film's biggest part is taken up by talks between the Turkana people. As one of the first ethnographic documentaries "A Wife Among Wives" subtitles these talks so that the viewer can get a better and probably more personal understanding of the life of the Turkana.
A Wife Among Wives was directed by David MacDougall and Judith MacDougall.
A Wife Among Wives runs for 1h 12min, and was released in 1981.
