Kinyarwanda is a 2011 film based on the Rwandan genocide.

Based on true accounts, the film consists of six interwoven tales of several events happening as the genocide takes place. Mosques become a place of refuge, and the taboo of interethnic marriage between a Hutu and a Tutsi is also depicted.

Reception

Variety described the movie as "doubly disappointing", while the African American Literature Book Club described it as a "brilliant directorial debut".
