Description
This project supports the production and strategic dissemination of "Earth Made of Glass", a feature film that explores the theme of forgiveness in Rwanda. The film will particularly focus on the question of whether, and how, it is possible to forgive those who have killed members of one's own family, and will feature a new production style which involves Rwandans in the actual filming. The project benefits from the support of Michael Fairbanks of the S.E.VEN Fund, as well as unprecedented access to Rwandan President Paul Kagame.
