Rwanda 20 Years - photographs by Pieter Hugo and Lana Mesić

On April 7^th 2014, it will have been 20 years since the genocide started in Rwanda. The international community didn’t take action and the country was obliged to find justice on its own. 20 years later some of the survivors say they have forgiven the people who killed their family members. Creative Court wonders: What could forgiveness be in a genocide context and how would one visualize it? South African photographer Pieter Hugo and Dutch photographer Lana Mesić went to Butare, in the south of Rwanda, in an attempt to find out. Part of a series of exhibtiions and events.
