The Film

Film Festival: Rwanda is a feature-length documentary that follows Rwandan filmmakers producing their own films, and screening them in remote villages for hundreds to thousands of people. For many Rwandans, this is the first time they've seen a film, let alone one in their local language, 'Kinyarwanda'.

Rather than re-examining the past, these young storytellers are using film to project a positive vision of their country's future. Their motivation, energy and creativity, inspired us to start following them last year.

Current Goals

1) To secure finishing funds for post production and film transfer.

2) To share the positive stories of hope in Rwanda that change perceptions around the world.

3) To contribute to Rwanda's film industry by teaching film workshops, training film students during our production, and donating as much gear/equipment as possible.

4) To listen, laugh, and learn.

5) To find wide distribution for our film to be seen across the world.
