Malou has come to spend the weekend with Bwesi, a young filmmaker living in Brussels. Things seem alright, but Malou is a kind of undecided girl, willing, not willing, yet willing.

Francois Woukoache

In 1989, Woukoache continued his film studies at INSAS in Brussels.

His latest film, Ntarabana, a documentary feature, follows the work he has been doing in Rwanda for over fifteen years and concludes a triptych on Rwanda post 1994: We Are No Longer Dead, Icyizere, Ntarabana.
