Rwanda. Months after the massacres, the grass has grown back. In a mass grave, the remains of a schoolboy lie near his reading book, which has been left open to an excerpt from The Romance of Renart: "Cursed be the eyes that close when they should remain open..."

Never again! Despite this solemn promise, fifty years after the Nazi death camps, another genocide exterminates human beings for who they are. Their only "fault": being born Tutsi, just as others were born Jewish, Gypsy, or Armenian.

Who will bring justice? At mass graves and in international organizations, a litany of empty promises serves as a funeral tribute. Only isolated individuals attempt to establish the facts, to write history. Among these grains of sand supposed to stop the machine of silence: Françoise, Joseph, and François-Xavier. A European lawyer, a Rwandan human rights activist, and the Kigali Public Prosecutor, they recount their quest for justice.

This book is the result of a year of commitment and investigation across the world. A reflection forged through contact with the realities of the field and the people. This story resonates far beyond the thousand hills of Rwanda... So that the augury of "Never again" is no longer a lie addressed to future generations.
