The Ombetja Yehinga Organisation (OYO) short films 'Be a Lady' and 'Be a Man' have been selected to be part of the official selection at the Phare International Film Festival in Mauritius. The organisation made the announcement today on social media, describing it as a "great honour."

The films explore gender stereotypes and how these stereotypes can box people in. 'Be a Lady' and 'Be a Man' aim to encourage conversations about whether people can be who they want to be and whether they should function within the constraints of what their culture, society, social media and friends expect of them.
