- Summary
- In the days leading up to the Rwandan genocide, journalist Bernard Valcourt meets Gentille, a waitress at a hotel, and they become involved. As tensions escalate, they find themselves in inescapable roles: she is seen as a Tutsi and her life is more endangered every day; he is a white foreigner who can leave at any time. Returning after the genocide, Bernard is desperate to find Gentille, who was detained as they fled together.
