UN DIMANCHE A KIGALI

Hotel Rwanda but from a love story point of view. One of the best and complex Canadian films of the year and will leave tears in the eyes. Bernard is a journalist who returns to Rwanda to search for his wife Gentille (who actually is Hutu, and not Tutsi as her fellow countrymen believe). The film interweaves between their happy and their horrifying lives in the past tense leading up to the genocide and Bernard in present day in his search. It is still hard to imagine the horror of the genocide and does get a bit violent for the quesy and extremely emotional. When he finally does find her, has he really found her? Past promises, past vows, what would you do to keep them.
