François Woukoache Cameroonian Filmmaker Screening We Aren’t Dead Anymore/Nous ne sommes plus morts (part one) on the genocide in Rwanda  www.africine.org “Woukoache searches for signs of hope amid the horror. He talks with four teenage girl students, a group of writers and intellectuals, and some young male drifters who seem oddly fearless … The most powerful film I saw [at the Berlin Film Festival], it has a tempered optimism that, under the circumstances, takes great courage.”Amy Taubin, The Village Voice Introduction by François Woukoache Q&A Session following the screening |
