Six intimate stories ore interwoven to tell the tragic story of Rwanda’s 1994 genocide, when a machete-wielding Hutu militia began targeting and killing their Tutsi countrymen – former friends and neighbors – with impunity Making his feature film debut, director/writer Alrick Brown worked with Rwandan co-writer/producer Ishmael Ntihabose to craft this script from a uniquely Rwandan perspective The result of that collaboration is a story that resonates with humanity and forgiveness, as it exposes and decries the fear and silence that enables tragedies like Rwanda’s genocide to continue to exist.
