Africa Is a Woman's Name is a 2009 documentary film by Kenyan film producer Wanjiru Kinyanjui. The film was shot by Transparent Productions and the Zimmedia production company[1] and distributed by Women Make Movies (WMM). It was directed by Kinjanjui, Ingrid Sinclair and Bridget Pickering.

The film stars three women, each of which tells their life stories: Amai Rose from Zimbabwe is a businesswoman and housewife, Phuti Ragophala is a South African school teacher and principal, and Njoki Ndung’u from Kenya is a politician, a member of Kenya's parliament and a human rights attorney and supporter. The three women express their opinions about what women and children in African cultures need to succeed. The film is said to portray a women's revolution on the Africa of the era (the late 2000s and early 2010s).[3]
