"That’s a lot of questions at the same time! At the core of it, the simple idea was to make short films, and then these became a whole series, about a feeling that a lot of people might have and yet, on that is rarely depicted on screen. In the sense that most depictions of immigrants in a European context, including those of black people, always contain some sort of hostility, and it is rare to encounter depictions of these people where they just get on with their lives."

"Your work can never be at the same level."

"I hope we can get together to make this cinema accessible."

"What is it that you leave behind when you leave home? And is it possible to recreate it?"

"I remember thinking: “that’s what I want to do.”"

"I would like to encourage my fellow Rwandan female filmmakers to pursue their dreams and ambitions."

"I have also been moving around a lot and it is kind of hard to keep track of where I am."

"It is a difficult path, but it is possible and I am glad to be walking on it."

"I like serious subjects but treated in a light form."

"The thing is that everything comes at once, and when it goes quiet it really gets quiet."

"I make sure I do what needs to be done."

"My search consisted in trying to understand and fight against the repulsion that gave me all that blood spilled... The Rwandans committed genocide, but they are also Rwandans who stopped it, and not the international community.

"I have privileged the word of the victims, I have not tried to be fair with the executioners and the victims. The repentant murderer is elusive, he recants, his words do not come in the same way. I have questioned the witnesses in our mother tongue, the contact is more direct, the expression is both more fluid, freer and more revealing, the speaker cannot hide behind the mediation of a foreign language, bad faith is seen in the eyes."

"We will get to tell our stories, because the world is ready for us all."
