A young filmmaker embarks on a deeply personal journey to uncover the historical roots of the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Through his investigation, he explores how colonial powers, specifically Germany and Belgium, imposed racial classifications that fundamentally altered Rwandan society and sowed the seeds of division. By tracing the history of these classifications and their lasting impact, the film examines the complex interplay between colonial legacy, identity, and the tragic events that unfolded in Rwanda.
