Eu regresso a Ruanda, a terra da minha infância. Kumva vagueia pelas memórias de homens e mulheres que viveram o genocídio Tutsi de 1994 quando eram crianças. A sua memória falha de uma infância perdida colide com a dos seus pais, que mantiveram o seu silêncio durante demasiado tempo. Kumva explora o tema da construção da memória, dando forma aos mortos e construindo uma ponte entre o passado e o presente.

I return to Rwanda, the land of my childhood. Kumva wanders through the memories of men and women who experienced the 1994 Tutsi genocide as young children. Their failing memory of a childhood lost collides with that of their parents, who have kept their silence for too long. Kumva explores the theme of memory building, giving form to the dead and building a bridge between the past and the present.
