The Diary of Immaculée
The Diary of Immaculée (2006)
Immaculée Ilibagiza grew up in a country she loved, surrounded by a family she cherished. But in 1994, her idyllic world was ripped apart as Rwanda descended into a bloody genocide. Her family was brutally murdered during a killing spree that lasted three months and claimed the lives of nearly a million Rwandans.
Miraculously, Immaculée survived the slaughter. For 91 days, she and seven other women huddled silently together in the cramped bathroom of a local pastor's home while hundreds of machete-wielding killers hunted for them....
Now, three-time Academy Award-nominated producer Steve Kalafer brings together the same talented creative and production team with whom he collaborated on previous films for their most challenging and powerful cinematic journey.
The Diary of Immaculée reveals the horrific, yet inspiring, true story of a remarkable woman's experiences in the midst of one of history's most tragic events. Immaculée Illibagiza, and others who were there, will tell you what happened...and you shall never forget it. With powerful and emotional on-camera appearances from the good Samaritans who kept Immaculée alive in Rwanda, and inspirational personalities such as Dr. Wayne W. Dyer and Carl Wilkens, this amazing story of a journey through the darkness of holocaust will touch your heart and soul.
This is a documentary that will take you, the viewer, to a place where horror, hope, hatred, and love lived side by side, clasping hands and breathing the same air. With unwavering faith and courage, one young woman faced the threat of unspeakable acts; endured incomparable despair; and quietly, graciously, and bravely came through the living hell of holocaust searching for safety, peace, and an everlasting heaven.
The Diary of Immaculée is a film that abounds with drama and compassion...and makes us realise that heroes and heroines will always walk among us.
