This film ¬– a first cut of a one-hour documentary ¬– describes how
unsubstantiated constructions of Rwanda's pre-colonial past contributed to ethnic conflict in 20th-century Rwanda culminating in the 1994 genocide, and how new research can re-investigate the pre-colonial past using tangible archaeological evidence.

The film was successfully entered into the Rwanda Film Festival 2008 and is now on show in the National Museum of Rwanda.
