DVD Le calme de la rivière empoisonnée

a film by Damien Fritsch, 23'

1994, Rwanda: between half a million and a million people have been killed in three months. August 1999, during the sun eclipse, I met Jean-Pierre.

I learned he was a refugee and put into a hospital because of his wounds. Later on, we decided to make a film of his history. A face to face between him and me. A man listens to another man talking about his pain.

In the DVD a bonus : an interview of Damien Fritsch by Guy Chouraqui recorded in June 2008
