In the years following the Rwandan Genocide of the mid-1990s, village tribunals were routinely set up in which perpetrators of war crimes came face-to-face with surviving victims. This documentary examines the life of a Hutu farmer accused and sent to prison for murdering several Tutsi, then returning to his village and maintaining his innocence despite the insistence of his accusers. The film shows the difficulty of reconciliation in a country where the memories of genocide are still so raw.
