A film made by a YWAM Film Making and Photography student about two kids coming to terms with post-genocide Rwanda in 1994 will be released in US theatres next month. The film was widely acclaimed when shown at the Cannes Film Festival in 2007.
The film was shot in only 11 days in 2006 while the director, Isaac Chung, was on a YWAM missions trip to Uganda. The film cast at risk kids who were a part of a YWAM run soccer camp in Rwanda and the crew was the other YWAM students on the school.
