Back Home Overview

Join filmmaker J.B. Rutagarama as he travels back to his homeland in search of the family he lost during the devastating act of genocide that swept across the East-Central African nation. The very fact that Rutagarama escaped Rwanda alive was nothing less than a miracle. Now, as the filmmaker travels back to the place that would forever alter the course of his life, his quest to locate his long-lost family is told through a heartbreaking mixture of historical footage and elusive memories that combine to offer a decidedly personal perspective of one of the greatest atrocities of the modern era. With old friends reunited and a twisting story that will keep viewers guessing until the very end, Rutagarama crafts a unique and moving documentary experience that is at once blindingly beautiful and unforgettably tragic.
