RWANDA: The Country That Rebuilt Itself in 30 Years | 4K Travel Documentary
In 1994, Rwanda lost up to a million people in 100 days. The killing rate
was four times the height of the Holocaust, the world withdrew its
peacekeepers, and the country was left with no judges, no economy, and
two-thirds of its courts destroyed. Thirty years later, it has the world's
highest proportion of women in parliament, streets so clean that foreign
business leaders compare them to Singapore's, and a national law that
closes the entire country on the last Saturday of every month so its
fourteen million people can clean their own neighborhoods.
How a country rebuilds from a wound that deep — and what the rebuilding
costs — is the story of this documentary.
In this documentary, discover how Rwanda's mountain gorilla population
more than tripled after the genocide ended, how Lake Kivu's three hundred
cubic kilometres of dissolved methane became a national power source, and
how 1.2 million genocide cases were tried not in courtrooms but on village
hillsides between perpetrators and the survivors who once lived next door.
Take a breath. Stay a while.
