Born in the hills of Umutara in 1934, Alphonse Kabutura’s life spans colonial rule, revolution, exile, genocide and national rebirth. From tending cattle as a barefoot boy to serving in Kigali’s operating theatres, from wrongful imprisonment to a midnight escape across the Muvumba River, his journey is one of faith, endurance and unwavering love for family and country. Tracing Umutara is the story of a generation uprooted yet unbroken, of a homeland lost and restored, and of a marriage that shone through every trial. It is a testament to memory, resilience and the quiet hope that, however long the road, it may still lead home.
