Summary:
During the Rwandan genocide in 1994, when neighbors killed neighbors and friends betrayed friends, some crossed lines of hatred to protect each other. As the country became a slaughterhouse, mosques became places of refuge where Muslims and Christians, Hutus and Tutsis came together to protect each other. Interweaves six different tales that together form one grand narrative that provides the most complex and real depiction yet presented of human resilience.
