Behind the roadblock 03

In 1994 a group of neighbours were accidentally filmed in a quiet street in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda. At the same time, the genocide that killed almost a million of the country’s inhabitants began. Recreating the scene, this documentary shows the fates of the victims, the military and the witnesses. This quiet street saw some of the first casualties fall, accidentally caputred by a British photographer. The documentary provides insight into some of the many involved in the conflict, and shows unique images from a time that the rest world would like to forget. red
