Kinyarwanda


Kinyarwanda PosterThere is a humanistic point of view that is rarely reflected on screen, but is celebrated when well executed.  It is when we are allowed to discover all that we have in common through the process of dissecting all that is different between us.
Using the cross-story telling vehicle that director Paul Haggis mastered in the Oscar winning Crash, Kinyarwanda turns its brilliantly diverse kaleidoscope on the Rwanda genocide of 1994.
With compelling sensitivity, director Alrick Brown offers reference points of understanding for the unspeakable horrors of those brutal 100 days of mass murder.
The meaningful beauty of the human existence: love, kindness, respect, and good will are brushed with a master’s hand on disturbingly vibrant canvas.  This film will not leave you, because you won’t want it to.  It’s kindness is to elegant to fade away.
