Born Hutsi

The colonization in Rwanda saw that the country was left divided into three fraction fictional ethnics such as Hutus, Tutsis and Twas. Post-colonial governments sowed hate in the population that led to the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsis perpetrated by mostly Hutus. This feature film follows the love story and troubles of a young mixed couple of a Hutu young man, Bigirinka and Tutsi young woman, Ingabire, in the '80s before and through the Genocide against Tutsis. It is part of a cinquology sequel that navigates the idea of generational trauma.
