A Sunday at the Pool in Kigali

Set against the civil war in Rwanda in the 1990s, a French-Canadian TV journalist and the waitress at his hotel fall passionately in love. But she is a member of the minority tribe, the Tutsi, and their romance--and her survival--depend on whether or not the two can flee the country as the government threatens to collapse and the Tutsis are in increasing danger of being massacred.
