LOVE PREVAILS
ONE COUPLE'S STORY OF FAITH AND SURVIVAL IN THE RWANDAN GENOCIDE
This personal narrative tells the story of two survivors of the Rwandan genocide of 1994 who managed to escape to what is now famous as the Hotel Rwanda. At once a love story and a harrowing inside look at the terrible events, their story of survival is also a story of faith--an effort to find God in the midst of horror--and of their subsequent struggles to find meaning, healing, and reconciliation.
