About
You can stream Black Earth Rising (2018) on Netflix with a subscription.
As a child, Kate Ashby was rescued from the horrific aftermath of the Rwandan genocide and brought to the UK. But the tragic shadow of her past proves impossible to escape.
This political thriller subverts standard crime tropes by centering a protagonist whose trauma is inextricably linked to the geopolitical scars of the Rwandan genocide. It trades predictable whodunits for a haunting investigation into how historical atrocities bleed into modern legal battles.
