Between 7 April and mid-July 1994, about one million people died in Rwanda: in less than three months, three-quarters of the Tutsi population perished during the last genocide of the twentieth century.
How was such a crime made possible? Twenty years after the disaster, the Shoah Memorial, committed for several years to the knowledge of the Shoah and other genocides of the 20th century, offers an exhibition that aims to be a place of history and memory.
To consider the history and memory of the genocide of the Tutsi implies a confrontation with the human and material reality of the massacres.
