face of. their job censoring for the social media industry. camilla there are thousands of so-called content monitors to take they scrubbed terrifying images from online platforms. perfect job for starvation wage the strain it is enormous. the cleaners social media's shadow industry starts to meet on g.w. . these young people in rwanda are lined up outside a stadium in the capital kigali but they're not here to see a football match or a music concert. they're here to remember the victims of the 1994 genocide when hutu extremists slaughtered hundreds of thousands of tutsis and other minority

groups. but this. poor little bit was the worst day of my life. our neighbors came to our home and murdered my family that is. up to 1000000 people were killed over the course of just 100 days. most of this crowd weren't even born to they're here today to audition for a t.v. talent show. on show. it will be one of the months since. the show is called east africa's going to. and it's similar to programs that are broadcast in europe and

the us. in the simon is in charge of the auditions like many others here simon lost family members in the genocide who want as young people know the history of the massacre but on days like this they try to forget about it for a while still you know it was just. that we're moving on we're moving along we don't want to be held by what's up in the past we want to move on we want to look for the future and it doesn't but the odds you all know we are in the period of 100 days of calm the ritual and just this thing is part of it so we remember we are night and then didn't you so we have a new ourselves and this is part of the new york about what what. what what one of my one people are called up to audition. and this one was a has come here with a friend who is an aspiring singer. for nasa herself

is too shy to sign up for the show she's a survivor of the genocide. like that. movie made and i think this show is great there aren't many jobs for young people in rwanda but they all want to black can make their dreams come true this might give them a chance. that he could wind up what we would have won by need. for nasa and simon 1st met at a support group for genocide survivors. he's become a surrogate father to her. the effects of the genocide are reflected even today in various aspects of rwandan culture the a on. a performing arts group called rehearses a play. that deals in part with bonuses story. all i have left this

bloodstained to offer. you witnessed cruelty the role of a knesset as played by my own. internet as parents died in the genocide when she was just an infant i don't 'd know much about. what did you look like. did i have your eyes. your finger is. perhaps even your smile. she's such a confused young fragile child she represents a lot of the youth now days we have a lot of questions and that's basically what i'm doing in this ng with yourself she's asking her mom about her history did you know it's it's difficult because her mom is new to the. sound of. a singer

named rosetta plays vanessa's mother as the woman lay dying she asked a young girl to take the baby to safety mother. tuesday evening. did you know marie was a would too *. was. this is the real vanessa she was rescued by grace morrow a hutu who was 13 years old at the time grace put her life at risk for saving the life of a tootsie. own. grace and vanessa still live together today along with grace's biological children in the us. after the genocide life was hard for me because there were still tensions between the ethnic groups and. we tried to get along with each other but it wasn't easy.

people used to call me insulting names all the time david cooley influenced. one of those names was a cockroach a derogatory term the hutus often used to describe tutsis. if any could be taken away have only one with things are different today at school the kids are taught that we're all citizens of rwanda why not quit being sued and that there were no differences between us fit to gain a kind of tolling and on. the name of the play is generation $25.00 it tells the story of a nasa and several others who were born in the year after the genocide took place. but that it's not headed. up. that. we have a lot of questions and we're hungry for the truth we want to know what's up but

it's so hard to really get to these questions and you couldn't get behind the group's founder and artistic director hope says that genocide is a recurring theme and rwandan society. to be honest there are some questions regarding genocide that just have no answer. because it's a unique evil it's a unique ideology but is written well and sometimes it just blows your mind that a human being just wakes up one morning and a human being in that class and walks out of them and the beast in them is in thrall. and how do we pop in for about this so i'm just make wishing that this young generation. detect to be fleeced and suppressed. the genocide came to an end in july 994 when

a rebel group the rwandan patriotic front overthrew the government the r.p.s. has led the country since then and has turned for wanda into a model african state economic growth is strong the streets are clean and corruption levels are low. but the r.p.s. government has also imposed strict limits on political rights and civil liberties because the authorities claim that the country is still threatened by hutu militias . we are now on our way to eastern congo after r.p. of troops put a stop to the massacres hundreds of thousands of hutus fled to the forests near the border because they feared reprisal attacks by rwanda's tutsi led government. there are still occasional outbreaks of violence in the region. the united

nations is trying to stabilize the situation in eastern congo part of that effort involves offering sanctuary to rebels who agree to stop fighting. those who want to surrender simply call our hotline. talks to a rebel who wants to turn himself in. so you have no weapons right where you are right now. try to get to tongo we can perhaps pick you up there. where the one on ones out. many fighters still fear that if they return to rwanda the authorities will punish them. as 25 year old rwandan fighter has nothing to be afraid of he had nothing to do with the killings back then and we try to explain that to them and. even men who are now 30 were children during the

genocide but the militia leaders are playing on the fears of those who fight for them $65.00 days it's. the 1st stop for those fighters who managed to escape is a un reception camp. in sa by monish was a member of the rwandan militia group until he found out about the un resettlement program and. he's given a thorough medical examination perhaps the 1st one he's ever had. a man and knows little about rwanda he was born in congo his parents fled there after the genocide. it was

a long trip but i'm safe now i hope the un will continue to help me my future will be different now. he says his parents would never consider going back to probe wanda. talks to students about the various militia groups that are now operating in eastern. he asks the audience what is the primary function of these soldiers. the other students have a laugh at that remark. he rose and explains that the militia groups whether they are from rwanda or congo are terrorizing the civilian population the f t l r is especially notorious in the region. this one is that these are these rebels

are taking advantage of the local residents. of the soldiers made meat they steal a coat from someone. if they want a woman or a young girl. they take one from the very villages they say they are protecting says all. the rebels recruit local boys and teach them how to use weapons. well those boys don't go to school either. we try to convince the locals not to support the rebel groups because it will bring nothing but trouble. after in something and another ex rebel how the man i'm always finish their meal they'll be transported to rwanda as part of the government's reintegration effort.

joy i'm really happy right now if i had wings i would fly. i'm going back to my home and i got away from the rebels and i'm glad i did i see. how the manner was born in rwanda in 1994 the year of the genocide so he's part of . generation $25.00 his parents fled to the congo and took their infant son with them. obviously these 2 young men had nothing to do with the massacre. the sons are paying a price for crimes committed by their parents' generation. as they crossed the border it seems like they're in a different world but rwandan society is still dealing with the effects of the genocide.

this former catholic church in the village of antara now serves as a memorial to the 5000 people who were killed here in just one day. that. their remains of genocide victims are still being found and rwanda once the bodies have been identified relatives can make a funeral arrangements. this helps to give the families

a sense of closure. a national memorial service is held every year president paul kagame a spoke at the $21000.00 of vent and issued a stern warning this will sink we have seen enough of the mess. i wouldn't. want to mess with those whether they're all here or from outside. i want to sit. with miss stuck with them big time big to thank the speech was well received by could gum

a supporters his threat against rogue wonders enemies was almost certainly directed against the congo based f t l r militia thank. here the theatre group continues their rehearsal this part of the play deals with a young man whose father took part in the genocide how does he cope with the terrible legacy of those crimes there's no more. she says and. most. that. she says most. sometimes the truth cuts sometimes the truth gets us somewhere but it's the same thing but if you're dragging the wound and for they want to hear you have to be true right you can no tough drive beat or have half cleaning so cleaning this

room sometimes is paying for my 2 needs to haiti we are all trying to rebuild a new image that is an image of unity and reconciliation hard as hard as it may be i mean people still have people still have you know everything is still sensitive but only one step at a time and yet people do so share their stories but not we don't come upstate and victim and perpetrator was killed. in the meanwhile the 2 former rebels arrive at a reintegration camp in rwanda. the they'll take part in an extensive government run training program that aims to prepare them for civilian markets. have been oh no i've been here less than an hour and i like it already this is a good place as what it's. called

a mana recognizes a few of his former brothers in arms. in recent years tens of thousands of former rebels have voluntarily returned to rwanda. but 1st some are skeptical about the agree integration program but in any case they're glad that they don't have to fight anymore. the next morning there's a special assembly. there singing a song that praises the rwandan state its main themes are peace unity and reconciliation there are no longer any official distinctions between hutus and tutsis. there. afterward

a psychologist talks about how to deal with trauma he says it can help to talk openly about these experiences most of these men have never done that. there is no statute of limitations on crimes committed during the genocide those found to have taken part can still be prosecuted. no one knows why i'm honest parents stayed in congo he doesn't know where he's going to live after he leaves the reintegration camp perhaps with relatives. but how the money will soon meet members of his family. the manager of the facility was one of the soldiers who helped to end the genocide. many of his relatives were killed in the massacres but now he believes that it's essential to bring hutus and tutsis together. so talking about hutus and

tutsis doesn't invalidate what but to hear we do talk about it. as. a way of. teaching these people to go there is the or or do we have already travelled on munich and it was. there but the rebel leaders in eastern congo continue to preach the ideology of genocide more. than just him back to may told us that they had killed people which is and that's why they had to leave for a wonder one arch there that's all i know is it they didn't like to talk about it. and we keep 20 as they passed to get a suit. they were being caught by ideology by war by climate but everything by talking it helps them.

just to heal their own. look office about life. the next day camp officials give hubby manas some money and permission to visit his family for 3 days it's an important part of the reintegration process but it will. have. the mana hasn't seen his mother for 10 years she returned to rwanda when he was a teenager he stayed with the rebels. i'm so happy that my child has come back to me through and yet. he's. one of the neighbors are glad to see him too some of them are hutus others are

tootsies they tell him that it's hard to make a living out here in the countryside and 'd. i see the country given he had a child when we were in the congo we always hoped that we'd find gold but we never did well in the little bit there in the cool i wonder what sort of walk i can find here when they are what my future will be like little you know of him. vanessa asks herself the same questions she'd like to start her own business someday but right now she doesn't have the money to continue her education. here she and her neighbors are taking part in the government's compulsory cleanup program which takes place once a month it's called gunda which translates as coming together in common purpose. the perpetrators and victims of genocide work side by side but for vanessa it's

still difficult to discuss the events of that time in her life girl who's going to be cool i always think that someone else has to speak fully now if it was who i can't express but i really feel. if i could i'd have a better life it'd probably be able to find a job now what it was but i just can't get the words on it so i always have to depend on others to help me but. we've come to the annual ceremony that commemorates the victims of the genocide it's called. which means to remember. director hope azita and her theater group are holding a final rehearsal before their performance where. the production manager is simon a young woman who earlier organized the auditions for the t.v.

show. the premiere of the play generation 25 will take place at the genocide memorial in could only 250000 victims are buried here. this is a place that forceful i want to buy detention this is split a special place that speaks to us so you if you're going to act so fierce and branded as a wronged it's not going to be you want connect with the space with your help with this business press is a very special space it does i suppose that does you know you have for me i use. now you i want to go back. it's more like that yeah well yes more than a 1000 people come to see the play most of them are actually part of generation 25 . to tell us about and extend it to step aside to some like the nasa may have

experienced the horrors of the genocide firsthand others like the ex rebels may feel guilty about the crimes committed by their parents' generation. yet. how. about it what's it. what's what's it. but this play is just part of a long and difficult process of reconciliation. the formants is a big success not least because the cast addressed complex and painful issues that still dominate rwandan society. 6 was. never done is

a really important skill given that she should be kept because their stories are just so terrifying they're terrifying and that's something that i wish write that will never experience never again read to us ambassador sends congratulations that was so wonderful at the right choice you in the past putting you. 8 as a 2nd if it was silly yes it was yes it was a i have to say this in 5. we've come to simon ioannis home where he and his family are hosting a dinner for a few. friends. monday guest is the nessa she enjoys meeting other members of the survivors group. simon met his future wife at a meeting of a similar support organisation these groups have been set up across the country and vanessa says they do

a lot of good. will and glad that i found this group. i like being around these people he sounds that. same on to simon is like a father or brother to us he's older than we i'm always happy to see him that we meet people from different generations and have a meal i really enjoyed. some of simon's relatives are also here along with a few members of his extended family of genocide survivors he says it's important for them to meet regularly and provide support for each other. we all have different stories or have different experiences of dave and it's it's a vast group e.t.a. to embrace human reason the truth is live in this city is part. of how we can move forward say but they should have to

dinner simon's baby daughter your arena is formally introduced to the guests this ceremony is a tradition in many of the one families because it helps to promote a sense of community in the. 25 years ago such traditions were very nearly destroyed and for wanda. you know that for many the psychological trauma of the genocide is still very real those who lived through it like the nasa are learning to cope but it's a long and complex process. and nasa hopes to have children of her own one day. when she was the same age as rena she lay helpless next to her dying mother it but she survived. was.

the. lots of goals met with silence the 2nd bundesliga match day empty stadium. he does buy and munich trumps frankfurt. and heads up a lean beat local rivals. should go. through the. double. in the height of climate change. for. what's in store.

for the future. come to mega city. inside. culture. this is the dublin news line from millions of children exposed to violence because of lock downs and you so they predicts a surge and beatings emotional abuse and sexual violence against children because of the very measures intended to protect them from covered 90 also on the program the world health organization suspends testing of donald trump's company 19 treatment of choice.
