Contents Summary

Footage of the Gikondo Prison in Kigali, Rwanda, in which some former child combatants are held in the wake of the 1994 genocide. These juveniles had been held with the adult population, but with support from UNICEF they've been given their own wing. Nonetheless one segment of this footage reveals a boy of 12 among the adults. Luc Chauvin of UNICEF is interviewed. He describes efforts to move youth to Gitagata Re-education Center. Jean de Dieu Mucyo, the Rwandan Minister of Justice, is interviewed; he discusses Rwandan law as it pertains to the detention of children.
