In 1994, the long and painful history of the small African country of Rwanda came to a dreadful climax. Over a three month period, one-million people were brutally murdered in a relentless genocide.
Pain and suffering have engraved themselves on the souls of Rwandans, but there are also clear signs of hope and restoration. In this documentary, witnesses to these changes – victims and perpetrators alike – speak of forgiveness and the role of the Gospel in their story.
The honesty of the murderers and the survivors is remarkable – nothing is glossed over or minimized. Yet as they continue to seek reconciliation and share their stories, the tremendous power of forgiveness and unity is revealed – a challenge to all cultures and societies.
This moving documentary portrays evil and grace – both on a staggering scale – and it shows the triumph of grace.
