In the Shade of the Hills Synopsis

Amani is 31. When he was an infant, he survived the genocide against Rwanda’s Tutsi population. Three decades later, Amani has set up an organisation in Nyamirambo, one of the more economically impoverished districts of the country’s capital, Kigali. It employs creativity, artistic practice and performance to grapple with poverty and generational trauma – acknowledging that deep-seated ideologies can easily foment prejudice and create an environment that proved so catastrophic in the past.

In the Shade of the Hills (2024) is a documentary film directed by Anne Jochum, released on June 13, 2024 with a runtime of 1h 24m.
