******Best Short Documentary Film award winner at the London City Film Festival 2021..... is ..........drum roll.........................Rwanda: Beyond the Swamp.
Context
In April 1994, my Colleague and friend Stephen Dupont and I illegally crossed the border into Rwanda to document and report on the atrocities that shocked the world. We witnessed the carnage of tens of thousands; in the streets, in fields, swamps, and in churches. What we saw and documented inexplicably changed our lives forever.
Twenty-five years later, I returned to Rwanda wondering, 'can a country find light out of such pervasive darkness'?
What I did find is a nation regenerated under the authoritarian leadership of Paul Kagame. 'Beyond the Swamp' tells Rwanda's remarkable success story and looks at the difficult choices to be made between memory and forgetting.
