Local
filmmakers are eager for the world to watch their movie, Dark Days. The
movie that was shot in late January and edited by Samples Studios, last
month, is set to premier at the Luxor Africa Film Festival (LAFF) in
Egypt from March 16-25.
Synopsis
Dark
Days is a 25-minute film by Musafiri Kayambi. It tells the story of
Gilbert, (Innocent Munyaneza), a young man with the dream of being a
journalist. He tries to film the struggles of his fellow students as
they are wildly evicted from a country called Tumbami.
Richard
Mugwaneza, the founder of Samples Studio and the editor of the movie,
says, “It is basically a movie about the struggles of a film maker but,
it also tells the story of Rwandans who have been chased from numerous
countries around the world. We hope people who have been in a similar
situation can connect with the movie, it is short but it has a universal
message and a good picture and sound.”
The project was funded by the Etisal Fund, which supports upcoming film producers.
