Description

France supported the Rwandan government which lost the war, culminating in the genocide of 1994. Many of the leading genocide suspects have lived quietly in France ever since. Twenty years later, the first French trial took place.

In Search of Rwanda's Gnocidaires is an attempt at objectivity rather than advocacy. Accusers and accused state their case as they seek common points of reference in the world's most polarized controversy.
