- French soldiers based in Rwanda during the 1994 genocide stand accused of raping the women who sought refuge with them.
Prisca, Marie-Jeanne and Concessa say they survived the Rwandan genocide and sought safety in refugee camps, only to be repeatedly raped and abused by the French soldiers sent there to protect them. All describe similar horrors: abduction from their tent, the gang rapes, and the photos of the assaults taken by the soldiers. “We naively thought that the white man was a saviour, that he would bring peace,” sighs one of the women. While the French army denies all accusations of rape, the three women filed a complaint with the French courts in 2004 and 2012. The investigation is now at a standstill.
As time goes by, the survivors are concerned with preserving the memory for themselves and their community. In this film, Concessa, Prisca and Jeanne return to the sites of their crimes and recount what happened.
A reflection on the unspeakable and the power of words, on the weight of silence.
This documentary was produced by Babel Press and directed by Michaël Sztanke & Gaël Faye. It was first released in 2022.

No words😢...lots of love from Kenya🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
The French should be ashamed of themselves for denying these women justice. Upping their nose at these victims is not ok. But then they allow all the Islamic to corrupt what was once a French country. Shame!
Read the description,and already upset,mad and so on...
Has justice ever been done for these women? Are the French held accountable as they should be? And what about the militia? WTH?
How sad can it get? French Soldiers sent to protect people are doing what the militias were doing? What a shame, I feel for these women, may God heal them...

Why is she laughing when talking about the one who got an ear cut off?
She’s trying not to cry…. I believe.
Masking the pain that comes with telling that story.
Traumatized!
It is called the laughter of pain in Africa. We say "we laugh but it's painful"
If you still follow their religious teachings the colonizers are still your gods.
