Born in 1994 from Mukamurekezi and Nkubito, the 3-month-old Muhoza miraculously survives the genocide against Tutsi in which her family is exterminated by Interahamwe militia. Rescued by an education inspector, Muhoza resiliently fights the odds to become one of the most talented and intelligent kids in the country. The education inspector, who later becomes the mayor of a district and a minister, adopts Muhoza and raises her as her own daughter. She has no idea that she is a survivor of the genocide against the Tutsi and an adopted kid until she learns it thirteen years later on a journey to the United States of America. The family that adopted Muhoza will play an important role in her psychological and physical development. This family is a true embodiment and sign of how parental love transforms everything and makes a difference. Muhoza represents a generation that was born during the genocide and together with her compatriots, her ambition is to transform the nation for good and forever. She is a true incarnation of her simple mother Mukamurekezi, who is traumatized, harassed, and arrested because she teaches students that they are the same - teachings that contradict those of a segregating government. Mukamurekezi is eventually killed but she lives forever in her daughter, Muhoza.
