In this episode we have Emmy award winning executive producer Richard Hall and director Ema Edosio-Deelen. They’ve teamed up for their latest film Bisesero: A Daughter’s Story, which is said to be the first major feature about the tragic events in Rwanda in 1994 told exclusively about and by Africans. Between 500,000 to 800,000 people belonging to the Tutsi minority ethnic group as well as some moderate Hutu and Twa were killed by armed Hutu militias between April 7 and July 15, 1994. Bisesero: A Daughter’s Story will recount the little-known true story of the Bisesero Resistance, in which tens of thousands of Tutsi, led by Birara and his daughter Ephiphane, fight against the better-armed forces trying to exterminate them. This movie is slated for release in 2024, the 30th Anniversary of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
