EJO

Rwanda. Summer of 1994. Twelve year old Didi survived thanks to her smarts and hatred for all living creatures, especially humans. Eight year old Eric survived thanks to his wild imagination and sensitivity. The two kids of opposite tribes are forced to venture together into the post massacre land in search for food, new home and their lost souls.
„EJO” a Kinyarwanda word for yesterday and tomorrow or Past and Future. The story is an afterimage of the genocide that happened in Rwanda 30 years ago. A road movie with two child protagonists seeking forgiveness and hope.
