Friends. Last year around this time I was in Rwanda to make a documentary. It is called "IBYIZA BIRIMBERE - THE BEST IS STILL TO COME" and now it’s out in the world for you to see it! It is the portrait of 3 young people in Kigali who want to show you a little bit around in their lives - 20 years after the genocide 1994. The film is not political and not made with a journalistic approach.
You can watch it online from our website ibyiza-birimbere.com - I made coupons so if you want to purchase it you get 50% off plus 3 rentals for your friends. Just redeem with "tumblr". If you are super broke but want to watch the film please just drop me a line!
Oh and there are french and german subs available for those who might need them! Hope you enjoy it!

Quelques photos de la marche de dimanche passée, qui est partie du Parlement. Il y avait plus d'une dizaine de milliers de personnes, dont quelques muzungus. Comme je vous l'ai dit je n'y ai pas participé, mais je suis quand même contente d'avoir regardé des images à la TV et dans les journaux. Je ne voulais pas y aller seule, et je ne voulais pas déranger mes collègues de travail en essayant de les rejoindre, eux, leurs amis et familles...
C'est une bien étrange période à ce moment-ci au Rwanda. Il faut pas trop montrer que l'on est heureux... on est comme supposé être en deuil, donc être taciturnes et peu bavard. Je vous parlerai plus du déroulement de ma semaine dans le prochain post, que je publierai aujourd'hui.

Obedience is at the heart of equation when it comes to mass killing. Would us Rwandans have an obedience syndrome? #rwanda #kwibuka20
