Thursday, Sept. 22, 2016 7:30-9 p.m.

Made up of women from both sides of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, Rwanda’s first and only all women’s drum troupe, Ingoma Nshya, offers a place of support, healing and reconciliation. When the group decides to partner with two young American
entrepreneurs to open Rwanda’s first ever ice cream shop, these remarkable women embark on a journey of independence, peace and possibility. SWEET DREAMS interweaves heart-wrenching stories of tragedy with powerful examples of hope and resilience to present a moving portrait of a country in transition.

There will be a Q&A with Co-Directors Lisa Fruchtman and Rob Fruchtman following the screening.

RUN TIME: 1 hour 30 minutes
