100 Days

A local Hutu official is persuaded to implement the government's policy against the Tutsi: to completely wipe them out. Josette, a beautiful young Tutsi girl and her family struggle to survive the killing by taking refuge into a church, supposedly protected by the UN forces. Meanwhile, Josette's brother is hunted down and murdered and her boyfriend rescued by the rebels. But the Hutu Catholic priest betrays Josette's family and only agrees to spare her life if she submits to his nightly violations. By the time she is reunited with her boyfriend, neither of them can face the brutal reality of their situation: she is pregnant and bears the priest's child, which she immediatly abandons. 100 Days was shot in Kibuye in 1999, the beautiful landscape had been the backdrop to some of the worst atrocities in 1994. In Kibuye Church, the site of an actual massacre, Rwandan actors played killers and victims that were only too familiar to them.
