100 Days

This is the first feature film to deal with the genocide of 1994, and the first from Rwanda itself. The idea for 100 Days came about in 1997 during a meeting between Eric Kabera, then a journalist, and Nick Hughes, the British documentary maker. As the story of a young Tutsi girl who survived the atrocities unfolds, France and some members of the clergy do not emerge as heroes, nor does the UN emerge unscathed.
