In Rwanda We Say... The family that does not speak dies

2005 Emmy Award Winner for its broadcast on Sundance Channel.

"An astonishing [film]..." —The Washington Post

"With extraordinary sensitivity, Aghion takes us into the heart of the problem of reconciliation in a post-genocidal society - not with wordy abstractions but with the earthy, real expressions of the people, victims and accused criminals, who must try to live together. Those seeking to know whether reconciliation is possible in Rwanda must look for their answer in this compelling expression of Rwandan voices."
—Alison des Forges, Senior Adviser to the Africa Division of Human Rights Watch

Film trilogy on the Gacaca in Rwanda

To reveal the complex process of achieving co-existence after killings of cataclysmic proportions, the final film in this trilogy on the Gacaca justice and reconstruction process in Rwanda focuses on the weekly pre-trial hearings leading up to the community-based Gacaca trials in the same rural hillside community that Aghion’s two previous films focused on.

This essential last chapter in the trilogy will be completed in early 2009, in time for special event screenings during the 15th year commemoration of the Rwandan genocide. Learn more.
