Marie-Clémentine Dusabejambo’s debut feature, developed over a decade, premiered at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival as a hybrid docu-drama examining Rwanda’s post-genocide landscape eighteen years after the 1994 atrocities. The film blends extensive survivor testimony with fictional narrative, employing non-professional actors to ground the work in authentic human experience. Dusabejambo and co-writer Delphine Agut crafted a structurally refined screenplay that allows trauma to unfold with emotional depth while resisting mere exploitation of suffering. The work navigates the complex social aftermath of mass violence, positioning itself as a significant artistic statement on collective trauma and resilience rather than straightforward historical documentation.
