Papua's sacred forest for women only

In Papua, Indonesia, there is a mangrove forest that only women are allowed to enter.

It’s a special place where generations of women have gathered clams and shared stories.

If men are found inside the forest, they are fined. BBC Indonesia’s all-female crew was granted permission to enter.
