RWANDA GAMBIT, written and directed by Andre Vltchek, with the participation of many leading experts on the Great Lakes region of Africa, is a groundbreaking documentary, which challenges the mainstream Western narrative on the 1994 Rwandan Genocide, and exposes the carnage in the DR Congo, in which almost 10 million people died.
Did President Paul Kagame of Rwanda, stop the 1994 genocide in his country, or did he trigger it? Did his RPF forces invade the Democratic Republic of Congo, prompting and fueling the worst genocide in the post WWII history?
Is the Democratic Republic of Congo simply suffering from a brutal civil war, or are Western companies and governments using Rwanda and Uganda to loot its natural resources on their behalf, there, killing millions of innocent people in the process?
Did the world go blind? Or is its vision selective? And if yes, then what is the reason?
RWANDA GAMBIT answers these and many other questions.
Filmed over more than three years, in the territories of Rwanda, Burundi, Uganda, DR Congo, Kenya, South Africa, as well as the United States, Europe and Japan. It contains exclusive footage and dozens of key interviews with the victims and perpetrators, as well as members of international tribunals, diplomats, UN employees, Kagame's close circle of friends, investigative journalists and other key figures in this complex and ongoing tragedy.
