The true odyssey of a young child, Alice Cyuzuzo, as she traverses
the roads of Zaire to seek refuge from the civil war that has
struck her native Rwanda. Gitarama, the Southern Province of
Rwanda, 1994. Five-year-old Alice enjoys a peaceful childhood with
her parents and little sisters, but life as she knows it is about
to change forever as the genocide of the Tutsis erupts, forcing her
to flee her village with her family. It is on the hot roads of the
Democratic Republic of Congo, known then as Zaire, that Alice grows
up, bouncing from one refugee camp to another, seeking some
semblance of a normal life in between violent attacks, with death
always lurking around the corner. With Alice, Gaspard Talmasse
delivers a singular testimony, capturing with painful emotion a
relentless world as seen thorough the eyes of an innocent child:
one who grew up to become the author's own life partner.
