My Photographs Of The Lady Mules Of Morocco

Every day the border between Spain and Morocco crosses over 30 thousand people. In each of these packages are clothes from western countries. For the transfer of one package on the other side the residents of Morocco gets 3 to 4 euros.

Many of the women who work as Lady Mules are separated or divorced, single mothers providing for their families. Life is difficult for them in Morocco’s traditional society, and often this is the only work they can get. Some of them make three or four trips a day from Barrio Chino, carrying up to 80kg.
