Sweet Dreams

Powerful sounds pierce the silence of the Rwandan countryside. Curious children gawk outside the gate. This is something new in Rwanda - a group of women, 60 strong, pounding out rhythms of power and joy. The film follows Kiki Katese and Ingoma Nshya, Rwanda's first and only women's drumming troupe, who's only requirement to join is: leave the conflicts of the past at the gate. The group is a place to begin to live again, to build new relationships, to heal the wounds of the past. Yet the struggle to survive still persists. So when Kiki proposed a new plan... open Rwanda's first and only ice cream shop, the women were intrigued… What was ice cream exactly and how would they do it?
