"I have a message for Rutaganira: nobody wants to hear your bad ideas!"

(Fanmail)

Twenty years ago, hundreds of thousands of Tutsis and moderate Hutus were murdered during the Rwandan genocide, which lasted 100 days. Hate radio incited people to kill. Today, on the same frequency, the radio soap Musekeweya ('New Dawn') preaches love and reconciliation, in an effort to prevent new outbursts of violence.

Love Radio tells the story of the soap's creators, its actors and audience through film, photography and text. It is a story of the impact of mass media and the thin line between fact and fiction, violence and reconciliation, guilt and innocence.
