We were intrigued by this radio soap, its background and its popularity in Rwanda, almost everyone we spoke to on the streets knows the program and can name at least five characters.

We came to the conclusion that we needed to provide a context, use the audio of the soap and find a form to tell a layered, nuanced story of the relation between the fictional story of the radio soap and the daily reality of contemporary Rwanda, a Web documentary was for us the ultimate way to tell this story.
