Dorothée Munyaneza / Cie Kadidi (Rwanda) - UMUKO

In Umuko, Dorothée Munyaneza listens to those who are making tomorrow's Rwanda: young people bubbling with creativity, daring, and zest for life. Exhilarating dance, poetry, song and music are mixed into an ancestral ritual to empower the new generation of Rwandan performers, grown up after the genocide.

For her new creation Umuko, French-based dancer, choreographer and theatre maker Dorothée Munyaneza returned to her native Rwanda. In dialogue with young poets, dancers and musicians, all born after the genocide that tore the African country apart in 1994, she celebrates the creativity, daring and freedom of a new generation. How do the memories of a horrific past find a place in an hopeful future?
