Revival - Elise Micomyiza

Revival: Surviving 100 Days, based on a true story, by Elise Micomyiza is about finding hope, love, and a reason to live again.

In the aftermath of the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi, Anne, an 8-year-old, is rescued by a housemaid, leaving her as the sole survivor of her family. This traumatic event marks the beginning of a journey from a lonely child to a traumatized adult, haunted by the loss of her family, rape, and the horrors she witnessed. Despite finding a new family, Anne's life remains unsettled. It is through the support of friends and consistent family that Anne learns to rebuild her life, finding love, hope, and a reason to live again. This narrative is a poignant reminder of the devastating impact of genocide and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable loss.
