It's a reminder that we are both important and yet insignificant; that despite vastly different circumstances, we live in parallel with seven billion others whose lives are of equal value to our own.

A young Rwandan girl watches me filming an interview.

Annet returned to Rwanda after the 1994 genocide. "I didn't know if I would live or die".

It was a neighbourhood genocide, so Rwanda's justice and recovery efforts have focused on local communities.

"Planting and cultivating the fields involves former enemies working together, which can be difficult."
