How can a teenage daughter express her deepest nightmares and free herself from the bondage of the past? What makes a man leave his entire family in a war-torn country and follow “God’s call- ing” to build a new life he cannot yet see? These are three pri- mary questions that “Beautifully Broken,” based on a true life story, answers. With major ac- tors such as Scott William Win- ters (“Lethal Weapon” television series), Benjamin Onyango (“God’s Not Dead,”) and renowned Christian artists Toby McKeehan and Michael W. Smith, “Beautifully Broken” is a dramatic display of God’s mira- cle when hope seems lost among three families, whose lives intersect across the globe. This riveting, action-packed, suspenseful, yet delicate, movie is full of life lessons that apply to families and friends. From the 1994 Rwandan Genocide, characterized by the Hutumajority attacking Tutsis, to an American horror tale of a spiritually-broken family, “Beau- tifully Broken” will teach its audi- ence that God’s transformative forgiveness and restoration works beyond all kinds of bor- ders, breaking all kinds of phys- ical, spiritual or relational barriers to bring about His goodness. Themovie demonstrates that no matter how broken you are or how hopeless your situation seems, whether you live in a hut or a mansion, God’s supernatu- ral orchestration and fatherly love can restore darkened minds and broken hearts. The movie begins with the Rwandan genocide when William Mwizerwa (Benjamin A. Onyango), a successful coffee business man and his family make efforts to preserve their lives from the bloodshed in Ki- gali, Rwanda, only to find them- selves cornered by Hutu rebels. At the same time in a small farm in Murambi, Rwanda, Hutu sol- diers force Mugenzi (Bonko Khoza), a Tutsi father, to leave his wife and daughter to join them after slaughtering their neighbors before their eyes as a threat.
