Directed by Claudine Shenge Ndimbira, Lend me Your Voice is a 19 minute, 2021 film, in Kinyarwanda, Kirundi, English, and French, with English and French subtitles.
The story is centred around Akilli Nadege, born in Congo but now a Burundian refugee, who flees her homeland but is captured and tortured before finally settling down in Rwanda. Consisting of five chapters, the story is told by strangers who read her story as if it was their own.
