In 1994, in the African country of Rwanda, over the course of 100 days, 800,000 people from the Tutsi tribe were brutally murdered by their fellow countrymen from the Hutu tribe. This drama tells the story of two brothers from the Hutu tribe, a soldier and a radio broadcaster, that are affected by the events. The film, directed by Raoul Peck who was born in Haiti, was filmed in the places where the massacres were carried out.
