Documenting a rising tide of hope in the decade after one of humanity’s greatest failures.

In recent years several films and books have highlighted the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. But few people know about the remarkable recovery Rwanda has made in the last thirteen years. Hope Rwanda explores the rebuilding of Rwanda from a uniquely Rwandan perspective. The film, which is directed by Trevor Meier, is a joint effort between Savvy Production and the Meier Media Group. It will be completed by the beginning of April 2008.  For more go to www.hoperisesfilm.com.

From Director Trevor Meier

“Our desire is that the film will bring the devastation, obstacles, hopes, and triumphs of Rwandans into the lives of those who have never heard their story. And we hope that in some way this film will aid in the process of Rwanda’s healing and search for hope.”
