DESCRIPTION:A documentary about how Rwandans use personal and family photog raphs to remember and commemorate the loved ones they lost in the 1994 gen ocide.\nThe Rwandan genocide claimed almost a million lives in just 100 da ys. The world stood by as men\, women and children were being hacked to de ath by machetes. When the international community finally decided it was t ime to pay attention\, it did so through memorable photographs of mutilate d bodies and seas of nameless refugees. But many Rwandans remember their l oved ones through images of life\, not death: a passport or I.D. card phot o\, an unguarded snap taken in the garden or a group portrait from a weddi ng or a baptism.\nThe Faces We Lost follows nine Rwandans (survivors\, rel atives of victims and professional memory-makers)\, who guide us through t heir stories and share their experiences\, remembrance and images. It is t he first documentary to explore the many functions of these priceless phot ographs\, and one of the few films to engage with Rwandans as users of ima ges\, rather than simply their subjects.\nThe Faces We Lost screened widel y on the international film festival circuit\, but this is its Brighton pr emiere.\nFollowed by a Q&\;A with the director and Claver Irakoze – o ne of the people from the film.\nwww.faceswelostfilm.com\nThis screening i s generously supported by the British Academy for the Humanities and Socia l Sciences and the School of Media\, Film and Music\, University of Sussex .
